Welcome to ArtistLink, an extensive resource designed to guide and support artists [1], developers [1], and municipalities [1] through the process of creating and preserving affordable artist space. Developing and sustaining artist space can be a challenge, especially to the inexperienced first-time owner or buyer. ArtistLink hopes to provide information and support to make the process as straight-forward and clear as possible.

Within the space toolbox, there are sections designed specifically for Artists [1], Developers [1], and Municipalities [1]. A home-buying course [1] for artists, a marketing guide [1] for developers, and a resource list [1] for municipalities are examples of the help provided.

Artspacefinder [2] is ArtistLink’s answer to finding and listing space to buy or rent in Massachusetts and the Boston Metro Area. Updated both by ArtistLink staff and outside parties, choices can be narrowed down by location (region and neighborhood), type (live/work, studio, exhibit, etc.), and much more.

About Us [2] provides general partnership, contact, and services information, as well as a What’s New [2] section that posts up to date local events, open houses, and general artist space related news.  

ArtistLink strives to provide the artist community and its supporters with information and support. If you have any questions, suggestions, information or enthusiasm, please don’t hesitate to contact us [2]!
