Artspace was a unique location for our business conference. Being situated around the different artists gave me the opportunity to view their works and talk to them. You would never have a chance to experience this if you had a conference at a traditional conference center. I would definitely recommend this venue to other businesses.”

We used their Gallery 2 and People's Studio on the second floor for a corporate event. Their development director Nathalie was a dream to work with (answered all our questions, was flexible on how we used the space, helped us move a ton of furniture around) and their CEO Carly even addressed our audience. We got a ton of compliments on how beautiful the space looked and our audience loved being able to view all the artists' studios. Thank you for everything!”
