This is where you want to go, to El Barrio P.S. 109. Believe me, it really is.

The Artspace has gallery spaces, studios for artists and residences under the NYC Connect lottery program.

Gargoyles from the original building (ca late 1800) have been reclaimed. PS 109 was converted to its present use as artist residences between 2013 and 2015.

There are programs of dance and theater, for poets, writers and Women’s History Month, as well as gallery art shows at El Barrio’s PS 109 Artspace.

For example, this coming week, April 9th, at 7:30pm enjoy Cuba loves Puerto Rico, a dance party organized by Gerardo Cortino. Join a poetry workshop led by Bill Keys on Tuesday nights. An exhibit of Women’s Street Photographers opens on April 10th from 6pm.

This unique community space is located at 215 East 99th Street.
