The 40th Street Artist-in-Residence Program awards West Philadelphia artists 1 year of free studio space at 40th & Chestnut Sts. In exchange, residents share their talents within West Philadelphia by leading workshops, teaching classes, exhibiting, etc. Founded by artist Edward M. Epstein in 2003 and managed by Gina Renzi since 2008, we address the need for studio space in West Philadelphia, assist artists with career development, and make the 40th Street area a nexus for visual arts.

A New Exhibit Every Month, April through September 2013!
Hey friends!
Thanks so much to everyone who visited the gallery during Friends and Neighbors last month. We had a packed house for the opening on January 11, sold some work, and had visitors on both gallery days (January 18 and 25).
Looking ahead, we'll be opening shows on the SECOND FRIDAYS of APRIL, MAY, JUNE, JULY, AUGUST, and SEPTEMBER.
Here is the rundown:
April: curated by resident Fatima Adamu
May: curated by resident Diedra Krieger
June: curated by resident Mike Harpring
July: curated by resident Thomasin Parnes
August: Exchange, our annual exhibit of community outreach work; we also take this time to bid farewell to outgoing residents and give a big howdy to incoming residents.
September: curated by resident Celestine Wilson Hughes
Don't miss the fun!
