Red Hook is a dynamic neighborhood tucked beside an old industrial waterfront. The area is home to 11,000 people and has a vibrant arts community. Artists have migrated to the Red Hook waterfront in pursuit of the neighborhood’s aesthetic quality and availability of former industrial space, suitable for studios.

Our visit will start at Pioneer Works, a non-profit organization that fosters multidisciplinary creativity in the arts and sciences, continue at the intimate Kentler International Drawing Space and conclude at the studio of artist Michael Joo, who collaborated with More Art in 2006-07. John McGettrick, co-president of the Red Hook Civic Association, will be our guide into the rich history of Red Hook.
