About Us

At Urban Arts House, Christian Yecker and Deborah Wissel are crafting a space for creatives to thrive. Located at a historic Urban building on West Orange Street, the space is available for musicians, artists, writers, and makers to lease and host events.

Named as a nod to famed architect C. Emlen Urban who originally designed it as a private residence for Herman F. Wohlsen, the historic gem will primarily be a space for artists of all kinds to rent studio space on the second and third floors—giving them a home for inspiration and collaboration.

Urban Arts House will also feature a beautiful common space and art gallery on the first floor along with a full kitchen and a small performance space and classroom in the back. 

“We’re excited to meet and work with like-minded people so this space can see its full potential,” Christian shared.
