Business Description
What began as a small studio at YoHo—known for its jam sessions and paint-and-sips—has grown into We Art One Artist Collective, an award-winning 501(c)(3) nonprofit rooted in a repurposed school building at 229 North Broadway in Yonkers, New York. Today, our campus spans two floors dedicated to artists, exhibitions, education, and community gathering.
When you step inside We Art One Studios, you enter a living, breathing space where creativity, community, and care intersect. Home to affordable private and shared artist studios, residencies, mentorship, workshops, and year-round public programming, our campus is both a working creative space and a welcoming destination for people of all ages.
Our collective includes muralists, painters, photographers, multimedia artists, wearable designers, and craft makers whose work reflects the rich cultures, stories, and perspectives of our community. Through exhibitions, installations, workshops, and partnerships with schools, senior centers, and neighborhood organizations, We Art One invites everyone to experience the healing power of the arts—not just as spectators, but as participants.
