Flux Factory’s mission is to support emerging artists through Artist-in-Residencies and Exhibitions, education and collaborative opportunities. Flux is an artist-led space that builds sustainable communities and retains creative vitality in NYC. Since 1994 Flux has hosted over 300 Artists-in-Residence, both local and international, as well as staging over 700 exhibitions across all disciplines. Flux’s home in Long Island City is a creative hive that incubates experimentation with collaborative processes. Flux hosts over 75 annual multidisciplinary events; all are free to the public while all participating artists are compensated. Each year Flux selects 40 Artists-in-Residence to develop their creative practices by offering affordable studios, shared workspaces (such as a print shop, wood shop, and technical office), a solo exhibition, as well as professional development opportunities. Flux commissions 100 multidisciplinary artworks annually through open calls with 4 annual Group Exhibitions.

‘The organization announced the purchase of their longtime home at 29th Street as well as a brand-new satellite space at Gotham Point in Long Island City… “We’ve constantly faced the treat of displacement, compromising our ability to support and promote artists most effectively,” said executive director Nat Roe in a statement’

‘”That feeling of lighting up your windows, turning your space into a space where you can share your work – our cities really need that hope and inspiration right now,” said Martina Mrongovius, Light Windows curator and Creative Director of Queens’ Center for Holographic Arts’

“Throughout the exhibition there is a back-and-forth between loud and quiet, works of protest and poetry. But there’s never a tension. The show’s greatest lesson is its capaciousness, reminding us that questions of access are also ones of creativity”
