MacArthur b arthur is a space for artists to congregate and play. If it is creative, it can happen here. The space has a 400 square foot gallery, a kitchen, windows to the street and can host readings, performances, special events, and film screenings. If you want to hold your event here, send me your idea! I’m looking for guest curators, a host for Movie Night, a coordinator for Bedtime Stories: readings of short fiction, and an ongoing Tea Maven to make crumpets, cushions, and crayons converge on the occasional Sunday.
