&ldquo\;ABC No Rio was a vital\, dangerous and confrontational art space on the Lower East Side.&rdquo\; - John Leland\, The New York Times


Born from a 1979 break-in of an abandoned building\, ABC No Rio became one of New York&rsquo\;s most fiercely independent homes for radical art\, activism\, and community. For nearly a decade\, it&rsquo\;s existed on sheer will without a permanent home\, taking its exhibitions\, punk matinees\, performances\, workshops\, printmaking\, and organizing wherever its collective could gather. \;


Now\, after years of organizing\, fundraising\, and fighting to stay alive\, ABC No Rio is almost home again\, this time in a brand-new four-story building designed to perform as boldly as its mission. \;


Built using the Passive House methodology and high-performance energy strategies\, the new center pairs low-carbon\, environmentally responsible design with highly adaptable spaces for a new generation of artists and organizers. Join ABC No Rio Executive Director Gavin Marcus and architect Paul A. Castrucci for a tour of the building at 156 Rivington Street. \;


Explore the galleries\, performance spaces\, artist studios\, printshop\, darkroom\, zine library\, digital media lab\, communal kitchen\, roof garden\, and more. Learn how adaptable design\, sustainable materials\, and high-performance systems come together to create a building built to sustain ABC No Rio for generations. \;
