PETSHOP

We are proud to announce that BFF has taken over lease and overhead management of PETSHOP - a shared space in Benson, offering studios, galleries, storage, event & meeting space, & offices.

We have also moved the BFF HQ into Petshop's latest expansion!   
So it is officially now our home :)

While BFF manages the overhead, we are still keeping
programming artist and community driven.

See what's next in the galleries, who's in the studios, and how you can host your event at PETSHOP.
