BWAC is a artist-run, 501(c)3 non-profit. With 25,000 SF of exhibition space, we provide opportunities for artists to show their work, develop professionally, and engage the public in the experience of art.
Please consider a donation to help us rebuild by clicking below.
We especially want to thank the artists who have shown such patience and understanding during this difficult time. We feel you. We understand the weight of this moment. We are here with you, and we are doing our very best to navigate this together.
We received some encouraging news about warehouse 7, which is exhibiting our member show as well as the Nuyorican/Aerosol shows. The warehouse was cleared by the building inspectors and is structurally sound. We are still waiting to hear about warehouse 8, which has the Park Slope Windsor Terrace show as well as Red Hook Open Studios artists.
BWAC has sustained water and smoke damage, but fortunately, it appears to be far less severe than the devastation affecting other parts of 481 Van Brunt. While we remain hopeful that the damage is salvageable, we won’t know for certain until we are able to safely access the galleries.
Please do not go and attempt to enter the building!
As soon as we are allowed inside, we will immediately update the artists.
Thank you for your patience, your trust, and your continued support.
