BUSHWICK has historically been a working class neighborhood of Latin American immigrants. More recently it has become home to a major art scene and was recently ranked one of the coolest neighborhoods in the world. Young art fills old warehouses, and factories have been transformed into studios and spaces for experimentation, performance, and street art. Bushwick plays host to new galleries as well as more established ones originally located in Chelsea such as Luhring Augustine. Bushwick Open Studios happens in June, a major event in which artists open their workspaces and/or host pop-up shows and parties. If you are around New York in early summer, don’t miss it! WE SUGGEST THAT YOU DO THIS TOUR THURSDAY TO SUNDAY 1- 6 pm when most galleries are open- CHECK websites for COVID & SUMMER SCHEDULES
