About

hARTlem is the brainchild of Deal With No Deal founder Nathaniel Mussington with the help of creative Arlene Danna, and in collaboration with artist ILikeArtTypeGirl (Katherine Polanco). Originally from Harlem, all were exposed to the art and culture of one of Manhattan’s most vibrant neighborhoods. Looking to fill the void of artistic events in the area, they decided it was time an event of this kind called Harlem home. That combined with the fact that so much talent in the Big Apple goes unnoticed by the masses; became the catalyst for hARTlem.
