GREEN VILLAIN
EST. MMIX // JERSEY CITY

Green Villain was founded in 2009 inside the historic Clorox Bleach factory located in Northern Greenville, one of the last industrial sections of Jersey City. The 20k sq ft warehouse featured artist studios, event spaces, loft style offices, two rooftops with panoramic views of New York City and lots of graffiti and street art.

Green Villain operates today as an art brokerage, a vinyl imprint (Green Village), a public art project (GVM), event series and publisher. Our primary office is located in The Sterling, an industrial redevelopment project we are spearheading which has modernized a 19th Century warehouse into an arts & business incubator.

Throughout the decade noteworthy projects have included the Demolition Exhibition and MASSIVE! Block Party, Bergen Arches Preservation Project, Berry Lane Skate Park, Chanukah Memorial Mural and others. The goal has always been to leverage our cultural assets to help Jersey City refine its place in the modern age.
