a curatorial and production studio for arts and culture spearheaded by James Voorhies

Spritz3000 offers the curation of exhibitions and programs for museums, galleries, and non-profits, and it works with organizations on short- and long-term fundraising, communication, design, and archival projects.

Spritz3000 approaches projects from a holistic perspective considering different facets of an organization, from exhibition design, graphic identities and communication content to donor engagement, scholarship, and collection management. The goal is to provide innovative and effective ways for organizations to present exhibitions, publish books, support programs, and activate archives while strategizing on how to build stronger engagement with audiences and donors, striving for excellence—with high doses of conviviality—throughout the process.
