A Note About the Company

Founded in 2007, Project Studios is an art services company with a mission to provide fabrication and consultation services to artists, and to offer inexpensive studio space in locations with vibrant arts communities. The main studios are housed in the Neumann Leathers Company factory complex in Hoboken, New Jersey. Project also provides web development services for arts organizations, creative companies and individuals.

Project Studios is a thin-profit company; our purpose is to support the arts using a small business model rather than a sales or grants model because we believe that art can be profitable for individuals within their own studio practice. This is achieved by providing inexpensive studio space so that artists can function as professionals even without substantial income. Project Studios LLC has its own ground floor studio space in Neumann Leathers where artist Nick De Pirro has his main studio. Other artists who lease space may use the shop if they have a project that they can’t accommodate in their personal studios.

Project is currently undergoing an expansion as we re-purpose warehouse space in Jersey City, New Jersey for a new common studio and printshop, music rehearsal space, and private studios for visual and performing arts. We are also upgrading our website, so please be patient as we add content to promote our services and the artists that we serve.
