Living Room - nyc
A creative space, an artistic laboratory fostering experimentation and collaboration; connecting brilliant, independent, and determined artists, performers, musicians, playwrights, filmmakers, and more, to each other and a community of art supporters.
We offer artists affordable space to start or finish a project and inspire creativity, inclusivity, and collaboration. We inspire artists to embrace their unique perspectives and express them freely. Our vision is to positively impact society and inspire future generations to embrace their creativity and individuality. Nestled between Chelsea, FIT, and Broadway, we have non-traditional gallery walls for visual artists, a living room for sharing engaging ideas and discourse for creative production, and a separate work-only studio space.
