A former private school in South Shore would be repurposed into a $9.3 million arts incubator through a Neighborhood Opportunity Fund (NOF) grant proposed to City Council today by Mayor Brandon Johnson.

The $2.5 million grant would be used by the Rebuild Foundation to rehabilitate the long-vacant, 44,500-square-foot, St. Laurence School for artist studios that accommodate painting, drawing, woodworking, music, and other artistic endeavors that include public workshops.
