Open House New York returns for 2025 from October 17 to 19, offering free or low-cost access to over 340 venues across all five boroughs, including architectural landmarks, cultural institutions, and hidden spaces not normally open to the public.

The event features 164 drop-in venues and 178 ticketed sites at $7 per person, with tickets released on October 3.

Painting in Space

The article announces "Singing in Unison: Painting in Space," an exhibition curated by Michael David at Art Cake in Brooklyn, running from October 18 to December 7, 2025. It features works from the 1980s and '90s by four abstract artists—Al Held, Frank Stella, Elizabeth Murray, and Judy Pfaff—who each explored the interplay between two-dimensionality and three-dimensionality, flatness and depth, and spatial boundaries in painting. The exhibition includes an opening reception with a cooking performance by Rirkrit Tiravanija and Tomas Vu, a panel discussion, and a closing poetry reading.

At Brooklyn Creative Reuse, Art Supplies Get a Second Life

Brooklyn Creative Reuse (BCR), a nonprofit founded by jeweler Stephanie O'Brien, has opened a permanent brick-and-mortar store in Industry City, Brooklyn, after launching as a pop-up in February 2025. The store sells donated, pre-loved and unused art supplies at a price-per-pound rate, making materials affordable for low-income artists, educators, and hobbyists. Its opening party on April 18 drew large crowds, and BCR has already diverted over 1,000 pounds of art supplies from landfills in its first year.
