arts district

Gallery-heavy urban zone

An arts district is a neighborhood known for its concentration of galleries, studios, theaters, and creative businesses.

Cities often designate arts districts officially to attract cultural activity and tourism, though some emerge organically from artists seeking affordable space.

The old warehouse area has become a thriving arts district.
