9th ANNUAL STooPS BEDSTUY ARTS CRAWL

During our annual STooPS BEDSTUY ANNUAL ART CRAWL event, we use the arts to bring people outside and promote social interaction among artists, homeowners, residents, and businesses of Bed-Stuy. Every summer since 2013, Bed-Stuy homeowners have collaborated with local artists to host performances and art showcases on their stoops, storefronts, yards, or sidewalks. To encourage family-wide participation, our Kiddie Korner features various children’s art activities.

ABOUT STOOPS BEDSTUY ANNUAL ART CRAWL

STooPS connects the Bedford Stuyvesant neighborhood of Brooklyn with a block party, classes, and opportunities for artistic expression in unconventional spaces. Celebrated annually with outdoor public art performances, STooPS enables artists to create where they live. We believe in artists’ ability to activate a space, inspire new ideas, and expand the creative culture of a community when they are able to create and share their work locally.  Every summer since 2013, Bed-Stuy homeowners have collaborated with local artists to host performances and art showcases on their stoops, storefronts, yards, or sidewalks. To encourage family-wide participation, our Kiddie Korner features various children’s art activities.
