| Description of our offerings: |
The Black Painters Academy is a physical space on 5 Eldridge Street in New Yorks Chinatown neighborhood. Our main goal is to provide resources to whoever we can thru mutual aid, workshops, art fairs, exhibitions and food distribution via our New Davonhaime Food Bank.
Our average working age is 20+ and all of our programming is free. Providing space to those for whom space is scarce thru object based idea reformation is the core of our workshops.
We are not here to tell people if they do or do not have space, we are here to provide it for those we know do not / have historically been
denied access to such. Unfortunately, that is an overwhelmingly Black and brown populace.
We fund our operations on a donation basis for those who are able to do so. Every third Thursday we operate the New Davonhaime Food Bank, a food pantry serving the areas of Chinatown, the Lower East Side and the FDR Houses from 10am - 12pm or until food runs out. |
