OSE Artist Enclave
What is an Artist Enclave?
The Old Southeast Neighborhood is proud to be a designated Artist Enclave Overlay District. Overwhelmingly supported by Old Southeast residents in a 2013 vote, the OSE Artist Enclave designation was granted by the City of St. Petersburg in 2014.
This special designation permits Old Southeast artists to enrich our neighborhood by using their residences as work studios, artist lofts, galleries, and instructional spaces. The Old Southeast is one of only two St. Petersburg neighborhoods with an Artist Enclave designation (Historic Kenwood is the other).
Make sure to keep an eye out for events hosted by Artists in the Old Southeast Artist Enclave and subscribe to the OSE newsletter.
