Don't know if you would be qualified to get space? This is what we will be looking for. You should have a good body of work, be working and selling, and possibly have a website that we could view.
If you would like an example of what other communities have done with this sort of art space please visit this website www.torpedofactory.org . Your space would be required to be opened to the public allowing them to observe the creative process and giving you an opportunity to be able to display and sell right from your studio without a commission.
Who are we? We are Jersey Central Art Studios, a non-profit group dedicated to promoting the arts, artists, and art education in central New Jersey. We are founded and led by Deborah Leber a working visual artist, Cranford resident, and Torpedo Factory alumna that has always believed that working with other visual artists has always been a creatively stimulating process. We at JCAS have been working with the township of Cranford to make this a reality and have been supported enthusiastically in our efforts.
.
We are sure that you will have a lot more questions and we will do our best to answer them but remember this is in the very first stages of becoming a reality so there will be some things we just won't know.
There will be more information to follow on this website but right now we just want to hear from you.
