Art Where You Are is a seasonal outreach program that brings free, accessible art-making pop-ups directly into neighborhoods across Gowanus and Brooklyn. The program meets community members where they live and gather — in NYCHA housing developments, public parks, plazas, and local businesses — providing hands-on creative experiences for individuals of all ages and backgrounds.
in collaboration with the Old Stone House
In celebration of Powerhouse Arts’ first major public exhibition, The Ark, come by the Old Stone House to create pocket-sized animal sculptures inspired by the critters found at J.J. Byrne Playground, Old Stone House, and Washington Park! With support from Powerhouse Arts staff, participants are invited to sculpt, craft, and experiment as they bring caterpillars, ladybugs, and other tiny creatures to life.
Drop in anytime to make artwork for yourself, friends, or family. All ages are welcome and encouraged to create with us.
FAQs:
- All Art Where You Are programs are free and open to the public. No RSVP is required.
