123 is a new community space in Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn. It was formed by four grassroots groups (A New World In Our Hearts, Freegan Bike Workshop, Misled Youth Network, Anarchist Black Cross) and many individuals who pooled time, energy, and funds to build the space. We now have programs running every day of the week including an after school program, a free bike workshop, a screenprinting studio, a poetry workshop, movie night, and political prisoner letter writing night. In addition, we are creating a lending library and also host many special events.

123 was started primarily by young people from outside the neighborhood. However, our goal is not to make a center to serve ourselves, but rather to open up the space to people of Bed-Stuy as a place to make their voices heard, learn together, share, and organize. To this end, we hold weekly meetings open to all and also are working to build relationships with local neighborhood organizations. We prioritize events and programs that are open and inviting to everyone in the neighborhood. Respectful language and behavior free of prejudice is emphasized within the space. We envision 123 as a safe haven for all, and as a fertile ground for local projects and activities to take root and grow.
