Wow! We are 5! What started as a tiny pandemic portrait project in Brooklyn has grown into a citywide platform connecting neighbors through documentary storytelling and community programs. 

Check out this special video by our interns, Brandon Mantuano & Brandon Denny. 

Happy Stoopiversary!

More than 10,000 New Yorkers joined nationwide demonstrations yesterday against Trump and Musk.

President’s Day was dubbed “No Kings Day” by local and national groups in opposition to the Trump administration and Elon Musk’s DOGE.

Picture Stories: Photographs by Arlene Gottfried  | The New York Historical This exhibition of more than 30 works celebrates the recent acquisition of Gottfried's searing photographs taken during the last decades of the 20th century.

Arlene Gottfried’s photography captured NYC in the 70s and 80s in all its grit and glory. Her collection has found a permanent home at New York Historical, and a small, terrific introduction to her work is there until May. Highly recommend! www.nyhistory.org/exhibitions/...
