The THNK1994 Museum (Crown Heights)
Exhibition specific
Description: The THNK1994 Museum started in 2015 with a Kickstarter funding goal of $75 and a 25-foot long hallway. The fundraiser ended up surpassing that funding goal and putting together a collection that includes artifacts, original works of art, and video installations. In the process of building “The Permanent Collection,” it became the founders’ mission to provide an IRL space for artists to showcase their work in ways they never saw media celebrating them. “Our hope is visitors leave our spaces with a fresh look at a familiar subject and a really great Instagram post.” Today, THNK1994 splits its time between curating original exhibits and producing pop-ups with one-of-a-kind installation experiences.
