In 2013, the "Brooklyn Rail" established Rail Curatorial Projects, an initiative to manifest the journal's goals within an exhibition context. That same year, the "Brooklyn Rail" was invited by the Dedalus Foundation to curate an exhibition which resulted in "Come Together: Surviving Sandy, Year One" (2013, Industry City), a momentous exhibition of hundreds of New York and Brooklyn artists. "Come Together" was named the #1 exhibition in New York City by Jerry Saltz in "New York Magazine" and in the "New York Times", Roberta Smith wrote, “This egalitarian show makes palpable the greatness of New York’s real art world.” In 2014, the exhibition was commemorated in a hardcover catalogue.
