Welcome to CHANGES, a place temporarily located at 19 Essex Street, NY, NY 10002.

CHANGES is a trans/fluid project inspired by anarchist bookstores, DIY project spaces, intentional communities, apartment galleries, junk shops and community centers.

WHO IS CHANGES?

“We” is simply the group of people accumulating at the bottom of this page. Hopefully it will grow to incorporate as wide a community as possible of artists, musicians, activists, poets, writers, thinkers, teachers and other creative, thoughtful people. So, please pass this on to the people you consider community. Our temporary location was generously donated by Nancy Linn and Eva Lewitt. 

WHAT HAPPENS AT CHANGES? 
Who knows?! Changes is open to all kinds of projects and ideas. Changes will be set up as a clubhouse, library and shop where you can buy goods like: herbs, zines, tea, clothing, chapbooks, mixtapes, jewelry, non-archival artworks, textiles, ceramics, perfume, patches and other wearable means of communication, rugs and general political, healing and spiritual paraphernalia. The goods for sale are a mixture of for and not-for-profit. Proceeds from non-profit sales will go to orgs chosen by each artist.

The space is open for a variety of activities like: political events, discussions, seances, skill-shares, yoga, treatments, dinner, lunch, breakfast, snacks, tea, meditation circles, chill zone, concerts, jam sessions, movies, draw-ins, art therapy, sound baths, reading groups, clothing swaps, stitch & bitches and performances.

All news and updates will be recorded on this blog and on our instagram account @chhhanges. If you'd like to send us an email to join/participate/communicate, our address is transchanges@gmail.com.

CHANGES is accessibly located on the ground floor.
