Artspace is dedicated to creating and preserving spaces where artists thrive and community is built. Our spaces vary from live/work apartments for artists and their families, working artist studios, arts centers, commercial space for arts-friendly businesses, and other projects. All of them are rooted in community because Artspace partners with business and civic leaders, arts and cultural institutions, and broad coalitions of community stakeholders to inform the creation of these spaces.

2021 has been an ambitious time at Artspace, and our success is honestly remarkable.

Work to date has included...
  • The Grand Opening celebration of Pullman Artspace Lofts, a multifamily affordable housing development within Chicago’s historic Pullman neighborhood. 
  • Completion of three major projects: the Northside Artspace Lofts in the Harrison neighborhood of North Minneapolis; the Artspace Silver Spring Arts Campus in Maryland; and the Oglala Lakota Artspace, the first arts center on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota. 
  • We began construction on the Ridgway Space to Create development in Colorado which will provide 30 units of affordable housing and community space. 
  • Plans are advancing on mixed-use affordable housing developments including the new SOMO Artspace Lofts in Bentonville, Arkansas, and the redevelopment of the Northrup King Building & Campus in the Northeast Minneapolis Arts District. 
  • We welcomed two leaders, Pablo Lituma and Shalom Cook, as our second pair of Fellows within the Artspace Rafala Green Fellowship program, which aims to make real estate development a more equitable field.
  • The Artspace Immersion program was awarded significant funding from our long-standing philanthropic partner, The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, to launch cohorts in Chicago, Washington D.C., and New Orleans over the next two years.

Artspace is a nonprofit organization that uses the tools of real estate development to create affordable places where artists can live and work. Artspace consistently develops these projects in ways that support stable, healthy communities, anchored in existing assets. Because Artspace owns each of the projects it develops, they are able to ensure that the spaces remain affordable and accessible to artists in perpetuity. With 50+ projects developed over the last four decades, Artspace has supported artist-led community transformation, representing an $800.56 million investment in America’s arts infrastructure. While embracing the value the arts bring to individual lives, Artspace has championed the once-radical idea that both artists living with financial hardship, and chronically underfunded arts organizations, can leverage fundamental social change. With headquarters in Minneapolis and offices in New York and Washington D.C., Artspace is America’s leading nonprofit developer of arts facilities; and has served as a consultant to hundreds of communities and arts organizations nationwide.
