Railroad Studio is our cozy live/workspace nestled in the heart of downtown Jersey City, the un-borough. We open our doors for JC Studio Artist Tour and JC Fridays events, with live music, DJ's, photo, design and video fun. We also invite local artistans to sell their wares in our little bizarre. Railroad represents the philosophy and lifestyle of those brave pioneers we encountered when we first fell into this strange little town. Can't keep a good freak down :: :: ::

Hey! Sorry I missed you at Canal St the other week. I don't check my myspace so much anymore, I'm a facebook convert. Speaking of which, there is an outcry from me, Heather Hatt, Heather McDowell and Karen Abbonizio for you to get a facebook so they can talk to you! Do it!
