Paterson Art Factory: 400,000 sq. ft of Creativity [VIDEO]

One of NJ's largest former textile factories is being transformed into a creative space for artists, events, and more.

One of New Jersey’s largest and oldest former textile factories, located on Spruce Street in Paterson, is being transformed into a creative space for artists and events called ”The Art Factory.” Once a busy manufacturing site for textiles and ship rigging, this 400,000-square-foot space accommodates artist studios, gallery exhibits, photos shoots, music video and film production, and variety of special events -- to name a few.

A new 3-minute video from NJArtsNews.org documents this creative renewal.
