The Community is a collective-run, non-profit multidisciplinary art institution, established in 2016.

Founded on a long-standing need for shared space and a platform to stimulate ideas and create collaboration across different artistic disciplines, The Community opened its doors at 65 rue du Château d’Eau, in the 10th arrondissement of Paris in the Fall of 2016.

Focussing on multidisciplinary exhibitions, each event offered an alternative to traditional thinking, where especially in Paris different disciplines of art, fashion, publishing, and music were almost always categorised individually.

The Community has since organised 25+ shows, 40+ events, and one salon in Paris, Los Angeles, Basel, London, Brussels, Marseille, and Nottingham, gathering more than 250 artists from 36 different countries.

Working with international artists and collaborators, The Community represents a growing network that all naturally move between disciplines and believe in artistic work and collaborations beyond existing borders.

In 2018, The Community closed its doors in Château d’Eau in an effort to expand the institution. In early 2021 The Community will open its new home in the neighborhood of Pantin, northeast of Paris, to continue supporting emerging and established artists through interdisciplinary programming.

The founders of the Parisian collective are Aapo Nikkanen, Benjamin Pöntinen, Jussi Kantonen, Osma Harvilahti, Sini Rinne-Kanto, Tuomas Autio, and Tuukka Laurila.

Close collaborators include Tiffany Dornoy and Annabel Fernandes.
