Art gallery in the works for this Avenue A space

There's a new tenant for 64 Avenue A between Fourth Street and Fifth Street.

Stacie Joy spotted Phillip March Jones, an artist, writer and curator, inside the space this week...
This past October, he started MARCH, "a curatorial platform and gallery operating at the intersection of visual art and social justice." 

Here's more about MARCH:
The gallery presents artworks in a variety of formats and settings — online, in collaboration with other institutions, and at off-site locations — with the aim of amplifying the voices and showcasing the talents of under-recognized artists.

Until June 2020, this storefront was Alphabets ... when owner Linda Heidinger moved the novelty-gift shop to Palm Springs, Calif.
