People of Ridgewood celebrates 2 year anniversary with art show

BQE Admin on May 12, 2025

People of Ridgewood is a community-driven project, led by Allan Escoto, dedicated to highlighting the people and stories that make Ridgewood and the surrounding neighborhoods special.
On Instagram, local residents engage heavily with the stories told by People of Ridgewood. From business owners, to local athletes, to neighborhood characters… Allan continues to shine a light on the people who make Ridgewood and Queens a unique place to live.
To celebrate their second year anniversary, Allan and his team are hosting an art show  –  displaying People of Ridgewood’s print projects  –  every Saturday and Sunday in May (through Sunday, May 25th) at 325 Project Space (325 St. Nicholas Ave. in Ridgewood, Queens).
