About

KAJE is a nonprofit exhibition space located in Gowanus, Brooklyn. The organization was founded in the space between two artists’ studios in 2018 with a mission to support creative impulses that are difficult to define and in need of participatory testing grounds. In a climate where a majority of exhibition making has become market-driven, KAJE is a rare platform to explore creative potential beyond the anxieties of the marketplace—specifically forms of investigation the market overlooks or deems unprofitable.

Location

KAJE is located at 74 15th St. Brooklyn, NY 11215. Entry to the primary ground level exhibition space is ADA accessible, at grade with the street level and free of physical barriers. The site's mezzanine level is not readily ADA operable, however alternative means of access can be arranged upon request.
