A long-awaited Bayside arts and culture
center is moving forward with a new
name in conjunction with a series of promotional
cultural events.
BaysideLiveTV founder and neighborhood
resident Gregg Sullivan announced
on Facebook that the Bayside Center for
the Arts would now be known as the Ace
Center at Bayside. Sullivan revealed that
ACE is an acronym for “arts, culture and
entertainment.”
“It’s been a really long, hard road with
obstacles to get around and hurdles to
jump, mountains to climb and challenges
to test the steadfast resolve of a centurion,”
Sullivan said on Facebook.
In August 2018, the arts center founder
expressed a desire to open a “creator’s
environment” at 41-23 Bell Blvd. that
would combine “artistic creativity and
community integration.” He added that
the center would be a fi nancial boon for
the neighborhood’s economy and would
bring renewed Bayside pride.
Following the announcement, Sullivan
shared the “For Women Only” event, held
on May 6, the fi rst of a series of cultural
and educational events produced by
the Ace Center and local restaurant the
Supper Room.

volunteers who are giving up their
time and donating their resources to
make very cool things come to life for
all of us here in Bayside, Whitestone, and
northeast Queens,” said Sullivan.

watching her, I
learned that anything
is possible,” she said.
She chose to became
a lawyer because
of a desire for

Working in children’s
services during law
school gave her an interest
in family law.
