Wayfarers Gallery

Wayfarers was a non-profit studio program and art gallery in Bushwick, Brooklyn, New York founded by American artist George Ferrandi. The venue existed between 2011 and 2020 with a front gallery that faced DeKalb street that had rotating exhibitions, as well as studios for member artists, a commons area and additional exhibition space in the back. Wayfarers featured a wide range of programming including regular exhibitions by member and guest artists, pop-up exhibitions, performances, readings, editions, a summer artist-in-residence program, and an international exhibition exchange program.

In 2015, Chicago-based artist Macon Reed featured her installation art "Eulogy for the Dyke Bar" at Wayfarers. Composed of cardboard, plaster, and wood, it was a life-size depiction of a gay bar representing the declining phenomenon of the LGBT community. In March 2016, the exhibition was again featured in the Pulse Contemporary Art Fair.
