Rather than let the property sit vacant for the years leading up to development, bdp holdings would create a space where entrepreneurs of all shapes and sizes could flourish and establish a footing in a unique setting. Small and micro businesses will populate the former tenant spaces. Montclair Flea is doing giant markets in the former grocery store space, artists of many disciplines are adorning our common area walls and corners with murals, sculpture, music and dance, and local food systems are taking root. The space is open 7 days a week to the public from 10am to 8pm and sees up to 5,000 people per weekend market day. Details: ● No Theme – Artists have creative freedom ● Murals to be painted in Fall 2025 ● Artists will receive a $1,500 honorarium (this covers all costs, including materials) ● A jury panel selected by Studio Montclair in accordance with public art best practices, will review and choose the final artists ● Murals will be featured for a term of six (6) months. ● Mural size is 17 feet wide by 8 feet high. (See photos below.) Don’t miss this chance to leave your mark on Montclair’s evolving arts district! For questions, contact Phoebe Pollinger, Studio Montclair, pmpartinc@aol.com – Include “Lackawanna Murals” in the subject.

Launched in the fall of 2015, PAIR takes its inspiration and its name from the pioneering work of artist Mierle Laderman Ukeles, the first official (unsalaried) artist-in-residence with the New York City Department of Sanitation (DSNY), 1977 – present. PAIR is based on the premise that artists are creative problem-solvers. They are able to create long-term and lasting impact by working collaboratively and in open-ended processes to build community bonds, open channels for two-way dialogue, and reimagine realities to create new possibilities for those who experience and participate in the work. Through a series of conversations, DCLA and a partner City Agency decide on a broad population, challenge, and/or goal the partner agency wishes to focus on. With Commissioner-level support, DCLA issues an open call for artists or recommends artists based on artistic excellence and demonstrated knowledge of the particular social issues addressed in the residency. The final artist selection is made in partnership with both agencies. Each PAIR is a minimum of one year. The residency begins with a research phase, during which the artist spends time at the agency meeting staff and learning about its operations and initiatives while also introducing their art practice and process to agency staff. The research phase concludes with a proposal from the artist outlining one or more public-facing participatory projects that will be implemented in partnership with the agency. Artists receive a fee, as well as in-kind resources such as desk space with the partner agency, an access to DCLA's Materials for the Arts.
