HISTORY
Unit E was founded in 2011 as an art and cultural space in the historic Art District on Santa Fe. From its initial launch as a physical space up through today as a community-minded production and events operation, Unit E has been successful in its mission to provide opportunities for diverse forms of art and creativity to reach their full potential. Producing a multitude of concerts, bazaars, workshops, art exhibitions, music recordings and more, Unit E is often referenced as a fundamental catalyst for creating the current generation of local creatives.
PRESENT
In 2020, Unit E is poised to continue pioneering the arts and cultural sector and have developed a new model to ensure the long-term success of arts as an industry. By providing professional development resources, technical training, mentorship, and employment opportunities to artists that compliment their artistic craft, we will create a local economy that is adaptable, sustainable, and equitable. The success of this new vision will result in a new type of creative individual; one who has a diverse skill set and can work on the production-side of the arts as well as the content creation side.
