Arts Gowanus is excited to present Flowers for Mom, a group exhibit at the Spring 2025 edition of The Other Art Fair happening May 8-11th at ZeroSpace in Gowanus! As nice as it is to get your mother real flowers, we prefer a gift that will last forever. Flowers for Mom features dozens of local Gowanus artists, who will exhibit artworks depicting flowers (or their interpretation of flowers) on to an 8”x10” panel. Come see the flowers that grow from the wide ranging and diverse talent that Gowanus has to offer!  All work will be priced at $300!!

The Patterns Gala is Arts Gowanus’s BIGGEST FUNDRAISER event of the year! The funds raised help us to continue our year-round programming and community advocacy and continue to fight for a sustainable future for artists in our community. 

The Hall of Gowanus is a community-curated archive of art, artifacts and documents related to the history of the Gowanus Canal, a post-industrial waterway that has played a central role in Brooklyn history.
