Do You Need Stuff? Hey, We Got Stuff.
Helping artists get access to hand and high technology since 1992


Need stuff to make your art and manage your career? Stuff is expensive, isn't it? Well, we've got stuff... and you can use it. We're a non-profit organization that helps artists, so we're not in this for the money. Your rental fees and membership dues generate the income that sustains this program (so we can keep helping you guys, get it?).

One way you can help this program grow is to become a member of Side Street Projects for as little as $35. In fact, until this program finds that magic benefactor, this service is for members only. Folks from the community can also become members of Side Street Projects and can utilize this service for non-commercial purposes like family functions and community-friendly events.


>Use Anything On-Site for $20 a Day
As with all our equipment, members can use anything and everything we've got for $20/day as long as you use it on-site at our Pasadena Headquarters. We'll set up and help you get started. We're open Mondays through Saturdays, 10am-5pm. On-site equipment use is by reservation only, call (626) 798-7774 for inquiries, or email us at info@sidestreet.org.

That projector bulbs cost in excess of $400 to replace? Did you also know that other companies in the LA area are charging more than DOUBLE what we charge? Your tax-deductible donation helps keep our costs low. Help us put this technology into the hands of artists who need it, but couldn't afford to use it without this service from Side Street Projects.
