TIWA is a cultural event space and gallery in the heart of New York's historic Tribeca neighborhood. SPACE: The Main Gallery space overlooking historic Walker Street is a clean slate allowing for a variety of uses, specifically private dinners, cocktail receptions, talks, presentations, and exhibitions. The Rear Gallery, which houses an extensive library of art books and lounge seating, allows for an extension of the Main Gallery, or for a separate gathering space that provides staging, back of house, or a meeting area. GALLERY: Celebrating the blurred line between art and design, and the ever-evolving culture of craft, TIWA Select is a platform and gallery space engaging with artists and makers who share an affinity for the unexpectedness of the handmade. Largely self-taught with the ability to work with locally-sourced materials, collaborators draw on traditional practices in their craft — but always as an embodied interpretation of their time, environment, and culture. Their works are tethered to their personal stories, elevating everyday functional objects as artifacts of human experience. Founded in 2021 by Alex Tieghi-Walker, TIWA Select has showcased works in New York City, London and Los Angeles, has collaborated with Farago Gallery and Frieze, and opened their first permanent gallery space in New York’s Tribeca district in Fall 2023.

Wang Contemporary occupies a landmarked 1924 Beaux-Arts building on the Bowery, restored as the future home of a private foundation dedicated to Asian contemporary art. The space brings together the architectural gravitas of old New York — original period detailing, cast stone facade, soaring proportions — with a minimal, atmosphere-first interior sensibility, resulting in a setting that feels both historically rooted and distinctly contemporary. As a foundation space rather than a conventional venue, Wang Contemporary offers a rare institutional context: exhibitions, artist dinners, cultural programming, and select private events set within an active center for Asian contemporary art in the heart of Chinatown. It’s suited to gatherings that call for cultural substance and a sense of occasion — collector previews, foundation events, curated dinners, and partnerships aligned with its artistic mission.
