SUBSPACE

Formalized in 2018, our Subspace program provides heavily subsidized or free space and support to artists who cannot afford our non-profit rental rates. Through Subspace, Z Space prioritizes independent producers and small arts organizations that:

  • Are part of Z Space’s existing networks of artists and organizations AND those brand new to us.

  • Clearly articulate values that highlight equity and sharing resources with their community. 

  • Demonstrate artistic risk, focus on process over product, or daring content.

  • Serve and are led by historically marginalized individuals. 

Since its inception, Subspace has given away almost $350,000 to over 30 individual artists and/or arts organizations (and counting!). Subsidies have been supported by the Fleishhacker Foundation, the Sam Mazza Foundation, the Andrew Mellon Foundation, the Zellerbach Family Foundation, and contributions from individual donors.
