chashama

The chashama Studio Program at the Brooklyn Army Terminal (BAT) is putting 2 studios at the disposal of Residency Unlimited. Thanks to this  partnership,  Residency Unlimited has invited  New York based artists Anne Percoco and Edward Schexnayder to occupy the studios for 6 months each in 2010.

chashama is an NYC arts organization whose mission is to support artists of all genres. chashama adopts vacant properties that are donated by their owners and converts them into theaters, galleries, studios, and window performance sites; chashama then regrants this space for free or at heavily subsidized rates. Since 1995, chashama has transformed more than 40 vacant properties and has given more than 6,500 artists access to space. “
