Are you an artist looking for a place to live and work in NYC? One of our regular residents is currently overseas, so we are seeking another shipmate for our international arts community for some 4 months, possibly longer. The available room is spacious, high-ceilinged, and furnished with the essentials: a full-size loft bed, large work desk with chair and shelves, small sitting nook, and closet. There are two bathrooms in the house, Wi-Fi, central AC/heating, and a washer/dryer. Shared living room and kitchen; all utilities included. Big bonus: an enormous roof deck!
Location: 4 blocks from Greenpoint Avenue subway station on G train, 15-min walk from Vernon Blvd on 7-train (1 stop to Grand Central Station). 20-30 minutes to Manhattan by bike (and yes, we have an extra one you can use!) Plenty of shops, restaurants, and bars are only steps away.
Mothership NYC is a combined live-work space and presentation arena for international artists across multiple disciplines. Our converted industrial loft has three rooms for permanent crew members and two spaces for shorter-term visitors. Once a month or thereabouts, we invite fellow artists and other creatives/cultural workers for a salon-style gathering where you can present your work to a very receptive audience. During the warm months, we use the roof deck as a stage for collaborative art productions across several disciplines.
Captain of international residency platform
We are looking for a fellow creative -- international a plus! The rest of the household consists of Captain Sol, a painter, + a rotating cast of visiting artists. Most of the time, we are five sailors total onboard, typically ranging in age from mid-20s to early 50s. Over the years, we have hosted many amazing talents on our platform; we invite you to check out Google reviews from former artists-in-residence: https://g.page/MothershipNYC?gm
Looking forward to hearing from you!
