The Tank Launches 2011 Heroes Campaign
The Tank understands the rising difficulties that surround New York City's artists: the shortage of space, resources, time, and support. It's a balancing act that is less about time management and more about alter-egos: artist/producer/promoter/techie; often leaving artists with half-realized shows or sparse audiences. This is how the the Tank became a hero, reaching out to artists in need. Now we need you to be a hero too!

Over the past 8 years, The Tank has sought to offer invaluable resources to artists in all disciplines: space, curation, promotion.The Tank believes our involvement with artists gives them the flexibility and peace of mind to focus on the work. We think walking out with a portion of the box office makes the next project that much more attainable.
The Tank continues to keep a watchful eye out on New York's artistic community. We hope you'll dust-off your gauntlets, starch your cape and join us.
With great artists comes great responsibility.
