From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Anya and Andrew Shiva Art Gallery is the primary fine art gallery at John Jay College of Criminal Justice, a senior college of the City University of New York in Hell's Kitchen, Manhattan, New York City. The exhibitions feature a variety of media, but are heavily focused on social issues and the humanities.[1] The exhibits in 2012 showed works on social justice, and 2013 exhibits showed works on women in social justice.

Opened in 2013, the gallery is 4,050 square feet (376 m2)[2] and is on the ground floor of John Jay's 620,000-square-foot (58,000 m2) building that sits on 11th Avenue and 59th Street (524 West 59th Street) in New York City, a four block walk from Central Park. The building was designed by Owings and Merrill.
