How ArtistLink Can Help
ArtistLink was created to help improve the environment for Massachusetts artists, especially by helping artists secure affordable space in which to create their work. The following web pages should demystify the process of finding, purchasing, and developing space. We work directly with all levels of developers of artist space and help them through the development process. If you are developing space, or just thinking or dreaming about it, please feel free to give us a ring or email with any questions you have about artist space. If you would like to know more about our services click here.
Note: Frequently you will notice that ArtistLink links to information on the Chicago Artists Resource site to a guide called Square Feet Chicago. This excellent online resource was developed through a partnership with ArtistLink’s major funder, Leveraging Investments in Creativity,the City of Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs, and Toronto Artscape. Because it contains thorough and useful information on many topics included below, we have chosen not to reproduce that content on our website but link to it where appropriate. Where that guide becomes Chicago specific, we have added Massachusetts specific information to our site.
