Did you say, “free education?!”
Off The Lane an organization founded by artists with a passion-driven interest to develop programs that empower artists and creatives.Off The Lane launched in 2019 and is a licensed 501(c)(3).Our community ranges from college students and early career artists to seasoned professionals looking to give back through mentorship, interactive panels and master classes. Our goal is to create an inclusive and accessible support system that continues to invest in new initiatives to meet the ongoing needs of the creative community.
Off The Lane is honored to be a grant recipient from NYC's Department of Cultural Affairs! The Cultural Development Fund (CDF) supports art and culture in New York, and we’re proud to be among the nearly 1,200 groups receiving city support this year. Big thanks to the NYC Mayor’s Office and the City Council.
This investment will continue to help us support our OTL artists and offer free programming via BOOST, Mentorship, ColLab, and Community Events!
Kindness Starts Here
“As artists, the only way any of us get anywhere is by lending a helping hand. Referring that talented friend to an agent, getting your friend a day-job at the bar you work at, inviting your friend to audit classes at your stuido. I truly believe in the power of us as a collective of artists who help each other and thrive together. My work at Off The Lane was born out of passion, and with every year that our community grows, it is proof that we all are really in this together.”
