Calling All Local Artists!

A member of our creative community has brought forward an exciting concept for an “Art Gym”, a shared studio space where artists can work, store supplies, and build their practice alongside others. Think of it as a flexible, collaborative workspace designed specifically for creators.
The idea is simple:
A communal studio space you can access as needed
Storage for your materials
A sliding “membership” model based on how much you’d use the space
Before this idea can take shape, we need to know if you are interested. If you’re tired of working at the kitchen table, fighting for space in the spare room, or dreaming of a place to create beyond your home — this is your sign!
Please take a moment to fill out our quick 10-question interest form. Your input will help determine the future of this potential shared studio.
