Antonia Arts is a community-driven nonprofit based in Peekskill, NY, dedicated to nurturing creativity, wellness, and diversity. We offer classes, workshops, performances, and rehearsal space at The Artist Spot, our welcoming home base in downtown Peekskill.
Our mission is to support artists of all backgrounds, encouraging the creation of new works, fresh voices, and vibrant audiences. We believe in the “Power of Now”—artistic flow that comes from being fully present and inspired.
Through theater productions, concerts, dance showcases, and community events, we bring people together. Scholarships are available, and everyone is welcome to express their unique self.
The Artist Spot is open for rentals, rehearsals, and creative gatherings—serving both artists and the wider community.
