When one door Closes another door Opens.

Mid July The Open Space will close its doors for good.

I am starting a new independent record label called "Space 2 Groove Records". Closing the Open Space is not a bad thing, it's just time to move on into a better direction. Myself and Maria would like to thank the musicians who came out to play and the visual artist who showed in the gallery.

The goal of the Open Space was to support local artist and musicians. We had 25 different visual artist show their work in the gallery. The Open Space put on about 50 live jazz improvised performances supporting the music scene in the lower Hudson Valley...You can find most of the performance on my YouTube channel...

I had a blast recording 41 live records in the gallery since covid.(The most creative time in my life so far)
I called up all of my friends to record and improvise, plus made new friends along the way...I will be releasing another 9 albums in the next few months under the record label Space 2 Groove Records...

Splicing its title from the west Norwegian island of Sula and a popular synonym for the Caribbean island of Martinique, the new, sonically colourful, teemingly inventive 2020 album is an intertwining of the artists’ far-flung roots, filled with wide-open spaces, jazz/improv surprises and African r...

New improvised music series starting soon!
I am looking for musicians that create something from nothing...
Hear is the Deal...The goal of the music series is to give musicians a chance to play what ever they want to create. The more creative the better...
There are no drinks or food served. The musicians get 100% of the Door, this way the venue takes Zero $.

All of the art in the gallery is mine or my wife's work, none of the art will be sold out of the gallery as it is only sold in outside auctions and art fares..

Why is this happening now? The building is for sale and I want to use it for something positive before it's sold...(I have no idea when it will be sold ???)

Improvised music series will be on Saturday nights..

Please message me if you are into booking a gig..
