About The Fitchburg Arts Community

***Please note: all rents listed are subject to change and are based on IRS LIHTC Income Limits for the current year. Rent amounts will change for 2025 and may or may not include utility allowances and deductions. *** Fitchburg Arts Community is a new affordable and workforce, artist housing development located in Fitchburg, MA. Fitchburg Arts Community offers studio, 1, 2, and 3-bedroom apartments as part of a beautiful renovation of the historic former BF Brown School, High School Annex and City Stables. Artist community cohesion will be reinforced with public art, gallery and studio space, and a landscape plan that knits the entire site together by creating an arts campus that connects to the Fitchburg Art Museum. NewVue Communities, in collaboration with the Fitchburg Art Museum, has embarked on an inspiring endeavor to repurpose three historically significant municipal buildings into dynamic live/workspaces tailored for artists and their families. These buildings, namely the former BF Brown Middle School, the former City Stables, and the former High School Annex, have been transformed into a collection of 68 mixed-income apartments available for rent, ranging from cozy studios to spacious three-bedroom units. This revitalization project boasts a multitude of amenities designed to foster creativity and community engagement. Among them are a communal space, on-site management services, a dedicated classroom for community activities, an artist community lounge, several galleries, open studios for artists to showcase their work, and a sound studio catering to audio and podcast creators. Additionally, there will be nearly 14,000 square feet of workspace provided exclusively for artists. While residency is open to individuals from all walks of life, we particularly encourage applications from those within the artistic community. Our definition of "artist" encompasses a broad spectrum of creative endeavors, spanning traditional art forms to contemporary expressions such as clothing design, digital arts, craftwork, and performance arts, including cultural professionals like art educators. -----

The Fitchburg Arts Community is located in the Outer Fitchburg Leominster Neighborhood and 01420 Zip code of Fitchburg, MA. This community is professionally managed by The Wingate Companies
