In the Fall of 2024, The Action Lab is looking forward to opening the doors to a brand new space in New York City, on the border of Queens and Brooklyn. **The Center for Social Justice and the Arts **will be a multigenerational arts and cultural production hub that generates opportunities for organizers, artists, and changemakers to claim space and build power through cultural practice and racial and economic justice organizing. The space will include flexible, multi-use areas for events and programming developed in close collaboration with our partners and the broad social justice community, including gatherings, exhibitions, concerts, talks and a wide array of social justice and cultural offerings.
