new business and new investment in the city's downtown community. The
gallery was established in September of 2009 to encourage growth of
the arts in the community, and since its formation has held more than
five major exhibitions of fine art in the New Rochelle downtown
neighborhood, including shows of original work by artists from both
New Rochelle and other cities, benefit exhibitions for other
Westchester organizations and events such as the current First Annual
Holiday Arts & Crafts Market.
The New Rochelle BID has also developed a 'Downtown Artists Spaces
Program' that is bringing together property owners with long-term
vacant upper floor space and artists and arts businesses seeking to
lease affordable studios.
