CNL Projects (CNL) is an art consulting firm that provides art advising to clients with a specialization in public art, private art collections, and creative program design. CNL was founded in 2014 by Cortney Lederer to provide artists and organizations with a platform to creatively produce impactful art experiences. 

We are dedicated to our collaborative approach, working with clients, artists, businesses, and organizations to advocate for the value of art and culture in our daily lives by enriching a home, office, community or public space. We develop art strategies and experiences that reflect our clients’ vision and aesthetic while capturing the radical imagination of contemporary artists’ reflection of the world in which we live, resulting in long-lasting relationships between artists, art collectors and their audiences.
