A moving portrait of a creative sanctuary lost to gentrification. Centered on the now-vanished warehouse at 411 New York Avenue NE, the film revisits the final year of Union Arts DC—a vibrant hub that from 2012 to 2016 was home to visual artists, musicians, performers, and dreamers. Through archival footage, intimate interviews, and the voices of artists who worked and performed there, the documentary captures the spirit of a space where art thrived and community flourished—until developers arrived with plans for a boutique hotel. As tenants rallied to save their space, Making Spaces: The Legend of Union Arts becomes a powerful elegy for what was lost and a rallying cry for what’s still at stake in the future of DC’s cultural landscape.
