In 2016, CulturalDC partnered with Hamiltonian Artists on a new initiative that establishes subsidized space for artists in the heart of the U Street/Shaw neighborhood located at 1932 9th Street NW. CulturalDC advised on the rental market analysis for the units, marketed the units, and fully vetted tenants leading to successful leases. Three brand-new, thoughtfully designed live/work units provide much-needed homes for working artists in one of DC’s most prominent cultural corridors. In addition, a 700-square foot, ground level, multidisciplinary start-up space for arts organizations and creative entrepreneurs offers a platform to engage the community through short-term projects.
