East Village artist Tom Manco opens a gallery-studio on Avenue B

East Village-based artist Tom Manco recently debuted a new studio/gallery space at 199 Avenue B between 12th Street and 13th Street. 

Inside, you'll find custom artwork and hand-painted sneakers, among other items...
In December, he had a "Sneakers and Swag" art show in the space. 

The hours are a little varied — especially this week, where a work commitment will keep him away... he expects to be in the gallery for several hours after 4 p.m. For the week of Feb. 14, he hopes to be there daily from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. 

You can follow him on Instagram for updates... as well as details on some upcoming Thursday-evening art openings. 

Last year, Manco unveiled several upcycled cardboard creations in Tompkins Square Park.
