NEW COLLECTORS’ PROGRAM

New Collectors’ Program

ISE-DA's New Collectors’ Program is a 3-year membership for Black professionals interested in art collecting. Aiming to help Black professionals acquire, understand, and support Black cultural production, our program provides a space for members to learn more about the process of art collecting and the wider art ecosystem.

Each tier of our progressive membership offers increasingly customized benefits, artworks, and advisory services. Members gain an understanding of the impacts of art collecting and the importance of developing a strategic approach. This subscription program includes exclusive tours of exhibitions, artist studios, and fairs.

With each year split into two seasons of programming (spring/summer and fall/winter), the New Collectors’ Program introduces members to different artists and increasingly makes accessible a larger range of works by global Black artists.

Our New Collectors’ Program is currently only offered in New York; but if you are based outside of New York and are interested in keeping up to date as we roll out the program and more events in other cities, fill out our Interest Form here.
