In the early seventies, a small group of artists and urban dreamers converged on a vacant three story wharehouse with the objective of transforming it into a comunity in which they could both live and work.

after twenty-five years and all the major building improvements long completed, the artists today concentrate on their individual creative pursuits.

The Developing Environments comunity encompasses a broad range of backgrounds and creative endeavors.

Painters, musicians, sculptors, print makers, graphic designers, computer artists, dancers, photographers, circus and theater performers occupy its thirty -six studios.

Through the resourcefulness of its members, Developing Environments continues to provide affordable housing and studio space for artists.
