Artist Certification Guidelines

The BRA has also piloted a certification process to ensure that only artists occupy artist spaces. Artists who are interested in becoming eligible to apply for live/work housing (rental and ownership) that requires artist certification can apply to be certified by a panel of peers through a mail-in application.

Guidelines and application are available here.
