As I was knocking around Broadway earlier this week I noticed the above store front. My first thought was “Gee, that’s a cool old sign, I hope they don’t cover it up.” My second one was “This looks like an art space.” My curiousity aroused, I went in for a closer look.

That is indeed what Papa B is. I poked around a little (both in person and online) and it struck me as being a rather nifty space— especially for an artist working on a budget. The “Open Studio Membership” costs only $150 a month and includes the following:

Access to the communal space from 10:00 a.m. – 10:00 p.m. workdays
A storage locker
High speed Internet
Free access to all shows, events and classes and
Being able to show and sell your work in their gallery space

Many other memberships and services are available. Those who are interested in learning more should Papa B via email at info (at) papabstudios (dot) com or visit their web site.

Rehearsal spaces are also reportedly in the works.
