## Resource

OpenStudios Lawrence is expanding downtown, turning vacant storefronts into vibrant artist hubs—painters, jewelers, photographers, and more are now creating and connecting with the community. The Living Room Collective, led by ceramicist Kim Brook, opens at 939 Mass. St., while Percolator moves into the old Squishingtons space at 646 Mass. St. to build a “third space” for art and connection. Meanwhile, Andante Home relocates from 745 N. H. St., making way for new artists Brandt Minden and Toni Brou. This fast-growing initiative, funded by grants and supported by nonprofits, turns empty buildings into creative engines—winning for artists, property owners, and the city alike.
