We are working on reframing Pro Arts Commons to shift from holding space to occupying intellectual property so we can build autonomy, agency, and economic power for artists and cultural workers around the globe. We are in the initial stages of initiating processes for a distributed network of commons oriented sites, practices, and means of production in Oakland and beyond.
Check back for updates, Pro Arts Commons will be popping up at different locations during this period and providing updates on the website!
