Brooklyn Academy of Music Art Print – BAM Fort Greene Landmark Artwork
$90.00
Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM) — Signed Limited-Edition Art Print
Bring a piece of Brooklyn’s artistic soul into your home with this full-color print of my original painting of the Brooklyn Academy of Music — fondly known as BAM. Nestled in Fort Greene since its 1908 rebirth, BAM isn’t just a building: it’s a cultural anchor, a beacon for bold performances, and a living monument to the borough’s creative spirit.
