New York City helped my mother become the artist she is today. The next generation deserves a City Hall that lifts up tomorrow's artists as well.

It’s been a pretty busy couple of days all things considered! Our priority now is to meet with civic leaders to discuss how this affects our business.
We will also be calling for public consultations with both the indie businesses and the wider community of Leith regarding future Newkirkgate plans.
