History
We were founded in 1997 by Claire Montgomery. In 2000, we moved into our permanent location at 26 Greene St, and launched our visual arts, music and dance programs the next year. In 2001, our International Residency Program followed and in 2002-03, we initiated our discussion and workshop program. Since then we have been growing all of our programs and upgrading our space to allow us to present the most current technologies.

Traditionally focused on technological experimentation and new media, Location One's residencies and programs have favored social and political discourse and dialogue, and acted as a catalyst for collaborations. With a unique environment providing individualized training, support, and guidance to each artist, as well as exposure for their creations and collaborations, Location One continues to nurture the spirit of experimentation that it considers the cornerstone of its mission.
