Artist Relocation

The City of Oil City’s Artist Relocation Program offers a number of incentives for artists relocating to Oil City, including residential zoning for live-work-gallery spaces, financing, and tax abatement for property rehabilitation. Commercial property grants and loans are available, as well as affordable downtown studios and exhibition spaces.

Studios

Affordable studio space is available in the beautiful, centrally located National Transit Building, an impressive historic building with surprises around every corner. The studios are all unique, and provide a central hub to a community of visual and performing artists and artisans.

Oil City, Pennsylvania is in the process of reinventing itself, and the core of a committed arts community is growing in its distinctive turn of the century buildings.
