Cinch Art Space

A former corset factory in Cortland now houses Cinch Art Space, an arts venue that opened in May 2013. The Cortland Corset Building is a historic, largely repurposed factory more than a century old, and its story is part of what gives the space its character.

The owners are committed to incubating artists, with a larger goal of making Cortland an art hub. It’s a good fit for anyone interested in the local arts scene, or in seeing how an old factory gets a second life as a creative space.
