"ZipSpaces
Rent out unused storefronts / commercial space on a weekly basis for pop-up cultural events. Unused storefronts can become art shows, impromptu food festivals, music jam sessions, and skill-share centers. Modeled after ZipCar and bikeshares, a similar infrastructure model allows organizations to check out spaces for short periods of time, and use them for creative purposes. This allows organizations with low capital to use space easily, making the locale a haven for start ups."
