How artist communities navigate displacement and economic stratification

Our artist studio building is being sold and all twelve of us need to find new spaces, but some people can afford the trendy arts district and others are looking at warehouses an hour away. We've been a creative community for four years and now we're all making different economic calculations about whether to try to stay together or just let the group dissolve based on what people can pay.

More people experience this than they realize.
