Review for Artspace Projects Inc, Minneapolis, MN, USA

Rating: 1 stars  

Artspace Projects Inc. Raises money by making promises to have affordable housing for artists and arts organizations. They promise this will be in perpetuity and they guarantee it by claiming they maintain ownership of all of their properties. They take donors money because this is an important issue and too many artists lose their places when the neighborhood they live in and love becomes better off due what the artists have done pricing them out. This is a great cause and one many millions years are donated to. The problem is when Artspace secretly sells off one of it's buildings and to a company that then skyrockets the rent prices and changing the community from Affordable artist housing to the most expensive lofts in their part of town. We understand why remaining quiet about the sale is so important and that is because it's directly opposed to what the donors were donating money for Artspace to do. Mission fail to say the least. The importance not lost on Artspace or their management companies who use intimidation, threats and evictions to keep people silent but there are voices out there with the truth just listen for them. Oh and Artspace Everett Station Lofts’ donors would probably want their donations back especially the ones in Portland did you give them that option?
