About
Welcome to 10013, the TriBeCa Foundation!
Our mission is to document the spirit of TriBeCa through the eyes of long time resident, Donna Ferrato and other notable artists. These photographs reveal the sedimentary strata of generations of immigrants, gangsters, captains of industry, politicians, workers and artists who walked these centuries old, cobblestone sidewalks. They capture the manners and mores of today's denizens who, lured by its old-world grace and simplicity, have made TriBeCa an extraordinary place to live.
Through the practice of photography, painting, sculpture and video, 10013 endeavors to be the vault for moments past, present and future, with yearly events and publications to celebrate and preserve our history.
Please get set for the live show folks! Stay tuned for our next grand announcement about where 10013 will headline next.
A newly established 501(c)3 with a mission to celebrate the historical importance of the Tribeca neighborhood in New York while raising awareness about local issues and encouraging a lively arts community.
"Donna Ferrato miraculously manages to capture TriBeCa from two completely distinct points of view at the same time: she can stand at a distance with the objective eye of a compassionate, awestruck outsider as well as take us inside the heart of our big city hamlet with the love and care that only a native could possibly possess. She has the ability to artfully merge these seemingly opposing vantage points into one singular, truthful, and gracefully beautiful vision"
- Michael Imperioli
