Flux Factory’s Mis­sion is to sup­port emerg­ing artists through res­i­den­cies, exhi­bi­tions, edu­ca­tion, and col­lab­o­ra­tive oppor­tu­ni­ties. Flux is an artist-led space that builds sus­tain­able com­mu­ni­ties and retains cre­ative vital­i­ty in NYC. Since 1994 Flux has host­ed over 300 Artists-in-Res­i­dence, both local and inter­na­tion­al, as well as staged over 700 exhi­bi­tions across all dis­ci­plines. Flux’s home in Long Island City is a cre­ative hive that incu­bates exper­i­men­ta­tion with col­lab­o­ra­tive process­es. Flux hosts over 75 annu­al mul­ti­dis­ci­pli­nary events; all are free to the pub­lic while all par­tic­i­pat­ing artists are com­pen­sat­ed. Each year Flux selects 40 Artists-in-Res­i­dence to devel­op their cre­ative prac­tices by offer­ing afford­able stu­dios, shared work­spaces (such as a print shop, wood shop, and tech­ni­cal office), a solo exhi­bi­tion, as well as pro­fes­sion­al devel­op­ment opportunities.

On Gov­er­nors Island, Flux Fac­to­ry will host Flux Sat­ur­days on the last Sat­ur­day each month from May through Octo­ber. Orga­nized by dif­fer­ent artists each month, the pro­gram will take many forms includ­ing pop-up exhi­bi­tions, per­for­mances, work­shops, screen­ings, artist pre­sen­ta­tions and more.
