The first Bushwick Open Studios was organized by a small group of artists in 2006, when 85 open studios displayed their work, after a November 2005 "Bushwick Open Source" event, according to Arts in Bushwick's website.

Since then, the tradition and lived on and grown, with Arts in Bushwick seeking to create an "inclusive artist community."
