openhousenewyork (OHNY) is a non-profit cultural organization founded in 2001 in New York City, USA, that hosts year-round public programs designed to engage diverse audiences in NYC's architecture and design. Through direct experiences and dialogue with architects, designers, planners, and scholars, OHNY opens doors for the public to discover cutting-edge new work, restoration of NYC landmarks, construction of infrastructure and engineering works and neighborhood planning efforts. OHNY focuses on seven core programs which address New York City's architecture and design and showcase access to spaces typically removed from the public realm. The seven core programs include: opendialogues, sustainablenewyork, architecturemoves, openhousenewyork Kids!, OHNY tours OHNY's focus on architecture photography competition and openhousenewyork podcasts.
