AMP: Artists' Meeting Place and Resource Collective

As part of New York City's Age-Friendly NYC initiatives, the Department of
Cultural Affairs has worked with the City's local arts councils and the
Department for the Aging on Space for Art, a new program that makes free
studio space available for artists in senior centers across the five
boroughs. Through Space for Art, artists provide programming at their
senior center in exchange for free work space.

Applications for participation are available through the local arts
councils. Due dates vary (see below). Please alert the artists and
teaching artists with whom you work about this exciting new opportunity.
