NOMAA makes new home at theUnited Palace of Spiritual ArtsNoMAA’s Studios
The uptown arts community now has a new place to create art as the Northern Manhattan Arts Alliance (NoMAA) has officially opened NoMAA’s Studios @4140, taking residence in the office and four arts studios on the 2nd floor of the United Palace of Spiritual Arts at 4140 Broadway.
Led by Executive Director Niria Leyva-Gutierrez and Executive Coordinator Michelle Orsi Gordon, NoMAA moved its base of operations into space the last month, and, this spring, will begin programming the United Palace’s two professional dance studios and two multi-purpose arts spaces. NoMAA was established in 2007 as a non-profit arts service organization that cultivates the works of local artists, strengthens the infrastructures of local arts organizations, and encourages public engagement and dialogues around issues affecting the cultural community of the area. Its programs include technical assistance workshops for artists, promotion of artist open studios (online since March 2020), and the annual Uptown Arts Stroll, now in its 18th year.
United Palace of Cultural Arts and NoMAA have already begun working in collaboration on “Uptown Artists at United Palace”, a virtual performance featuring uptown artists on the United Palace stage as we safely usher in the return to theater.
Please join us in giving a warm welcome to NoMAA’s Studios @4140!
