Batavia Artists Association at Water Street Studios

batavia artists association at water street studios is a not-for-profit organization devoted to expanding art in batavia and the surrounding communities. by converting an historic limestone building in downtown batavia we have created an amazing 16,000 sq ft arts center featuring 26 artist studios, three classrooms and two premier gallerys for showcasing fine art. created by a group of artists, the property owners, city officials, and community members; the center will focus on extending the arts community here in the tri-cities and beyond. “the shared dream/vision is to have a central location for artists to rent affordable space and develop their craft, all while having a network of support and inspiration from their neighboring artists. add to this, the ability to interact with the community through shows, classes, workshops, projects, events… the potential for a shared creativity is simply inspiring.”
