☀️ MAY 15-MAY 17: come view "On the ground where we might find" - the final exhibition of work from our 2026 LES Young Artists of Color Fellows!
🌷 "On the ground where we might find"
Final exhibition of works from the 2026 LES Young Artists of Color Fellows
FREE with RSVP.
Opening Reception: Friday, May 15 | 6-9pm
Gallery hours: Saturday & Sunday, May 16 & 17 | 1-5pm
👥 The exhibit includes works by Benjamin Hsu, Coralis Rivera, Daniel Marte, Jewel Champbell, Kendall Greene, Mei Bock, Natalia Boumatar & Nia Blue.
💌 In this exhibit, the eight artists experiment with ways of being with others, caring for each other, and remembering together. The pieces are participatory in nature: some are directly inspired by existing community archives, while others attempt to break the ground for one. Anchored in feelings that are meant to be shared: camaraderie, gratitude, nostalgia, and grief, the exhibit explores emotional complexities within a sense of community.
🔗 RSVP link in bio. RSVP is required for this event, but can be made at any point prior to arrival.

LOWER EAST SIDE HISTORY MONTH is one month away!
🎉 Lower East Side History Month is an annual celebration of the stories and peoples of the LES. This year, over 60 organizations -- including museums, arts nonprofits, community centers, small businesses, and gardens, will host learning opportunities, tours, performances, and public events!
🫂 The LES and Chinatown have deep histories as sites of refuge, community, and mutual aid -- places created by immigrants for immigrants.
💌 At a time when immigrant communities are being targeted and villainized, we encourage everyone this May to celebrate and honor the extraordinary contributions immigrants from all parts of the world have made to the rich, diverse history of our neighborhood.
🗓️ Check out the calendar of Lower East Side History Month events at www.peoplesles.org or in link in bio 🔗 More events TBA - the calendar will be updated throughout April!

#LESmonth #LEShistorymonth #PeoplesLES
We’re Celebrating 25 Years!!!
FAB began on E 4th Street in 2001 as a coalition of arts and community groups fighting against our own displacement.
That beginning held values that continue to shape our work – a belief in the importance of local community, character, culture, and collective organizing.
The struggle to secure permanent space for arts and culture in a rapidly changing neighborhood is inherently entwined with other fights –preserving affordable housing, sustaining small businesses, advocating for greater equity, and resisting cultural erasure.
FAB evolved from our first success on 4th Street.. to bring artists and arts strategies to collaborate locally on a range of pressing neighborhood concerns.
As every organizer knows, the work doesn’t end – yet the secret ingredient to sustaining ourselves is celebrating wins and milestones when we can!
Throughout our 25th year, we plan to honor and appreciate the people and actions that shaped FAB – the trailblazers who worked without maps, guided only by a strong sense of what the power of creatively working together could make possible.
And on June 17th, three months from today, we invite you to join us for FAB25! A community party and benefit celebrating 25 years of Fourth Arts Block.
Save the date – because we’d love to share a moment of joy with you. Dancing included! 💃
🎟️ 🐥 Early bird tickets till May 24th!

A huge congratulations to the 2026 Lower East Side Community Heroes!!
We loved celebrating Bill DiPaola, Brian Gonzalez, Destiny Mata, Shaheeda Smith and Eleanor Wong last night! The work you do is seen and is vital to our community.
Thank you to everyone who came out -- and thank you to everyone who nominated locals, friends, and loved ones.. It's hard to describe the energy of a room of people who believe that the folks who make a positive impact on the Lower East Side & Chinatown deserve to be recognized, cheered on and encouraged by our own.. but it was truly buzzing with warmth and support!

If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media.

Simply enter the username of the profile you’re curious about, and the tool will display their latest Stories.

Limitations: - This tool works only with public accounts; private accounts remain inaccessible. Benefits: - Privacy-Friendly: Watch any Instagram content without being noticed. - Simple and Easy: No app installation or registration required. - Exclusive Tools: Download and manage content in ways Instagram doesn’t offer.
