At #ZeroEmptySpaces, we are dedicated to transforming vacant commercial real estate spaces into working #artist #studios that serve as vibrant hubs for #creativity and community engagement. We activate these spaces where #artists can #create and collaborate at an affordable price while having the ability to host classes, be discovered and sell #artwork out of their studio with 0% commission. Our innovative approach addresses the challenge of urban blight and #retail + office vacancies by occupying unused spaces for a win/win/win! Through this model, we breathe fresh life into new and neglected areas, fostering #artistic expression and economic revitalization. All with the goal of expanding the appreciation of various genres of visual #art and helping to create a thriving #cultural #community in more cities across the world. Artists are able to host classes, workshops, potlucks, and non profit fundraisers where they can invite gallerists, collectors, #curators, friends + family and the general public to discover their #artwork. Through this model we have successfully activated 33 formerly vacant spaces over the last 6 years in 4 states supporting over 800 artists - changing 100's of artists lives 1000's of times over.

This June, CreativeZen celebrates 8 years of bringing our community together through inspiration, creativity, connection, and meaningful storytelling. What started as a simple idea to create space for people to gather, reflect, and be inspired has grown into a monthly tradition rooted in purpose, community, and the belief that everyone has a story worth sharing. For our 8 year anniversary event, we’re honored to welcome @vickirosenthal.art , MSW, an artist, educator, advocate, and artivist whose work uses creativity as a catalyst for connection, equity, and social change. Vicki has used her art to elevate immigration justice, LGBTQIA+ rights, reproductive justice, voting equity, inclusive education, environmental consciousness, women’s rights, and more. Her work reminds us that creativity is not only something we make, but something we live through action, kindness, and showing up for the world we want to see. Join us Friday, June 12, 2026 at Zero Empty Spaces inside DCOTA for a morning of community connection, guided meditation, and an inspiring CreativeZen Talk. Doors open at 8:30 AM for coffee and connection. Talk begins promptly at 9:00 AM. CreativeZen is free and open to the community. RSVP here: / #CreativeZenTalks #Choose954 #ZeroEmptySpaces #VickiRosenthalArt #Artivism

🇵🇪 As a child growing up in Peru, I spent many of my winter breaks outside of Lima. During those vacations, we traveled from Lima to Chanchamayo via the Carretera Central. On our family road trips, my grandmother entertained us in the car with snacks, jokes, conversation and road games. The highest point of our journey was La Oroya, over 12,000 feet above sea level in the heart of the Cordillera. From there, we began our descent into the jungle. The altitude was the most challenging part of the trip for me; however, I felt a sense of relief as we started to descend. I loved witnessing the change in scenery from the barren Andean landscapes to the lush vegetation of the jungle. During the road trip, my mom and grandma would point out the various plants we encountered, and we would observe the precarious turns in the road and how far below the rivers flowed—scary at times, with an abyss on one side. Dad was an experienced driver on those roads and kept us safe. Arriving in Chanchamayo was a relief! The air smelled different, and I felt welcomed. We also visited other towns, such as San Ramón, Iquitos, Pichanaqui, and Puntayacu, most nestled in the high jungle of Peru. I marveled at the power of the rivers, the deafening roar they made as they descended from the Andes to the jungle, and the life they supported. We traveled on a “lancha” (small boat) and even bathed in these rivers. These memories are why I decided to paint these rivers now—a connection to beautiful childhood moments, an appreciation and respect for nature, and a deep love and nostalgia for my motherland. @zeroemptyspaces @workatbric #silviaariasart #bocaratonflorida

☀️ Throw Back Thursday I was going through an old sketchbook and found an incomplete sketch of The Red Mill. Back in the 90’s I participated in a residency at Vermont Studio Center located in Johnson Vermont. It was a fun memorable learning experience I will never forget! @vermontstudiocenter #silviaariasart #bocaratonflorida #ᴛʙᴛ
