"The design, like the name, plays off the fashionable idea that culture should be both grand and provisional, spectacular and temporary, awe-inspiring and evanescent, like a giant dance party or an epic flash mob."
The Shed is adjacent to 15 Hudson Yards and borders the Public Square and Gardens, where the High Line meets Hudson Yards.

The Shed, which opened on April 5, 2019, creates, produces, and presents a wide range of performing arts, visual arts, and pop culture events.
The Shed is a brand-new 21st-century cultural institution. Those there create and accept creative art and ideas from all fields of creation in order to foster a common knowledge of the ever so quickly changing world to create a more equitable society.
As an autonomous organization that values originality, equity, and charity, they are committed to developing creative forms, tackling important societal concerns, and making their work effective, sustainable, and relevant to the local community, the cultural sector, New York City, and beyond.
One can stage practically any sort of performance, exhibition, event, or gathering in the large, multipurpose facilities that allow for social separation, thanks to the adaptable infrastructure and operating skills. The Shed is able to create engaging experiences and develop strong ties between its artists and audiences because of their beliefs that access to new art and ideas is a right, not a privilege.
They are devoted to expanding creative forms, addressing pressing challenges of today’s day, and making their work effective, sustainable, and relevant to the local community, the cultural sector, New York City, and beyond as an independent organization that values inventiveness, equity, and charity.

The Shed brings together known and rising artists to produce new work in genres spanning from pop to classical music, painting to digital media, theater to literature, and sculpture to dance in their highly flexible facility on Manhattan's west side. They look for possibilities to cooperate with like-minded companies, interact with cultural peers, and provide unique settings for private events.
The Shed was created to break down barriers between creative disciplines and spectators. They provide a warm, welcoming environment for creativity and conversation by lowering social and economic obstacles to admission. They collaborate with creative minds and collaborators to create revolutionary digital experiences on-site and online, embracing technology.
