In March 2021, Artspace, the nation’s leading nonprofit developer of arts facilities, shared a survey asking Tampeños to tell it what they wanted out of any new development that might help keep artists in the neighborhood. Results of the Arts Market Study were released later that year, and now we know that Artspace wants to make its home in Tampa’s Ybor City neighborhood.
In a press release, Tampa Arts Alliance, said it found a site for Artspace Tampa at 1610 E 3rd Ave., on 23,000 square-feet of land donated by local developer Darryl Shaw.
There, the nonprofit—which took over the Artspace Tampa Initiative project in January 2022—envisions approximately 75 live-work units, 2,500 square-feet of gallery-amenity space and 3,000 square-feet of arts organization space.
