BRONX BASEL

BRONX BASEL is a self-guided tour with various activations mapped out within Fordham Heights.

In celebration of Hip-Hop’s 50th anniversary, 360 MAGAZINE will curate a collection of galleries, eateries, trunk shows, art tutorials, live performances and emerging artists. The installation recognizes local businesses and artisans alike, providing them with an opportunity to network and engage while introducing sustainability.

According to Stacker.com, “Bronx County’s GDP was $52 billion in 2022—the #9 highest out of 62 counties in the state. New York’s overall GDP was $2.0 trillion for the year, with Bronx County’s making up 2.5% of it.”

The timing couldn’t be better with the grand opening of the Universal Hip-Hop Museum, a plethora of new restaurants, and a showcase of acclaimed musicians & graffiti artists, it’s an opportunity for locals to continue to build upon on one another’s endeavors. 

Once properly funded, we plan to offer transportation for the elderly and disabled within a one-mile radius, food truck samples, and immersive experiences where families can partake in workshops using upcycled materials.

The inaugural presentation will begin at 360’s Bodega. This transformative space will host an intimate reception with prominent local figures, building ties with our firm as well as others in attendance. Recognizing the importance of community, our team of visionaries are prepared to offer the following gratis services to a select few: business plan execution, merchandising, marketing, and web development.

Open to the general public with no admission, we are anticipating close to one thousand in attendance for summer 2025.
