FABnyc was founded to save eight properties on East 4th Street. We won that battle - creating permanent homes for a dozen arts and culture organizations. For the past 16 years, we’ve been an outspoken advocate for community-based arts and culture in New York and nationally.
We all need culturally vibrant, diverse communities. Please support our work with a donation to FABnyc!
