2024 Brendan Gill Prize Ceremony

Join the Municipal Art Society of New York on Monday, September 30 for a night of celebration and conversation to honor the 2024 Brendan Gill Prize awardees: curator Thomas Lax and artist Linda Goode Bryant for their exhibition, Just Above Midtown: Changing Spaces.

The 2023 Museum of Modern Art exhibition brought greater attention and recognition to Linda Good Bryant’s art gallery and self-described laboratory, Just Above Midtown (JAM), a space that fostered the creativity and careers of African American artists and artists of color in the 70s and 80s. The exhibition presented artists and artworks previously shown at JAM in a wide range of mediums, and archival material and artist interventions contextualized the experimental ethos that defined the gallery.

The celebration of this year’s honorees will take place at the Museum of Modern Art. As part of the festivities, Thomas Lax, Linda Goode Bryant, and members of the Brendan Gill Prize Jury will participate in an engaging conversation about the exhibition.

Complimentary refreshments and light bites will be served.
