Streets and a future public art walk. In fall 2008, the West Harlem Art Fund partnered with Vantage Properties to develop storefront installations and a “pop-up” boutique in empty commercial spaces along Broadway in West Harlem and Washington Heights. These installations were able to incubate emerging fashion designers for a short period of time and uplift the spirits of local community residents during a tough time in our nation's history. In 2009, the West Harlem Art Fund decided to continue their experiment with “pop-ups”. The organization produced several installations around the city with Transportation Alternative for NYC Park(ING) Day and formed a partnership with the Humanities & Art Division at The City College of New York to co-sponsor public art installations at historic St. Nicholas Park on an annual basis beginning in 2010. Early Summer in 2010, the West Harlem Art Fund, Inc. in partnership with the MFA program at the City College of New York, the City University of New York presented the exhibition In Dialogue featuring the artists Marcie Revens and Scherezade Garcia in historic St. Nicholas Park. The organization also presented an important work Ghost Net by the organization Trash Patch at the Tapestry Building located in East Harlem for the summer as well. Ghost Net was a timely installation because it held in between the time an Atlantic trash patch was discovered and the BP Gulf oil spill off the coast of Louisiana. The Ghost Net installation allowed the public to discover what a real trash patch would look like underwater. In March 2011, The West Harlem Art Fund in partnership with the Times Square Alliance and the Armory Show presented a major public art exhibition that featured the organization's Counting Sheep installation. Created by Kyu Seok Oh, Counting Sheep was the first outdoor paper sculpture installation in NYC. Millions watched or visited this installation in the heart of Times Square between 45th and 46th Street and Broadway. The organization was selected in 2012 to create a public art installation for the Affordable Art Fair in Chelsea with a work by Dominican artist Iliana Emilia Garcia. During 2013, the organization produced two shows in the Bronx at Bartow-Pell Mansion and at the Andrew Freedman Home on the Grand Concourse. In fall 2013, WHAF produced the public art series Playlab with New York Restoration Project in four gardens in East Harlem. During 2014, the organization curated the
