Description: "As gentrification spreads, we are priced out of neighborhood after neighborhood. Most working artists cannot afford this city's exponentially increasing studio rents: many of us are adjuncts, freelancers, part-time, or otherwise unprotected workers. We all know of fellow artists who have recently lost their spaces. The Artist Studio Affordability Project (ASAP) is an effort to bring this issue to the attention of the public and local politicians. We focus on raising awareness about the crisis of affordable studio space, and on advocating legislation that will protect and expand affordable artist studios."
