The 4th Street Space

03/23/2026

First ever tiiiiiny sneak peek of this place for Facebook. 🫣👀 I just want to take a minute to express gratitude. (Discord heard it first😉)

I was so overwhelmed today by everything that needs to get done, then a helper came through big time! We officially have a freshly painted small gallery, our big main wall has been patched and sanded to prep for paint tomorrow, and I was able to get SO much cleaning and organizing done because of her taking these things on!! Thank you so much to everyone who has been part of this process from the very beginning. It’s starting to feel very real.

I just want to remind everyone that this is YOUR space.

We want you to show and sell your art here. We want you to call this home. We want you to meet lifelong friends and connections, and make memories that will last a lifetime here. Please let us know how we can help you grow and succeed. Tell us what you want out of the space. Come on in and put your personal touch on this place!! We’ll have one more big space improvement night this week before occupancy gets finished up. Message me for our address and the details if you’re interested in volunteering any time or supplies. ❤️

We’re also still in need of monetary donations (see bio for links), as we are now needing a new water heater and AC unit. 🥲 One thing at a time, at least we got heat and running water again! 🤣 See you soon!

Today is a BIG day at the space, and it’s a HUGE week for us! What’s happening?? All of this! ⬇️

🥵 Our furnace is on and our air/energy bills are all paid off!
💧 Water is back on and our plumber and city bills are paid!
🔥 The Fire Marshal will be here tomorrow to go over over occupancy with us!
🧽 Today is a cleaning and painting day! Come join us from 1pm-8pm!

Here’s what we need help with/what we are looking for:
- Someone comfortable with replacing ceiling tiles and light bulbs (we have a ladder)
- Help with painting and cleaning, as well as supply donations (house paint, rollers, pans, brushes, tape, cleaning supplies, toiletries)
- Engagement with this post and our media to help spread the word
- Financial donations if willing and able (we are completely volunteer run by college and post-college age young adults-no source of consistent revenue yet!)

We are BEYOND excited to be this close to opening our pride and joy to the public! Keep following for updates, and send us a message if you’d like the address to voluteer or donate today! Thank you! ❤️
