Independent Open Art Studio Time for students
We offer various open studio days to give students time to work independently on their own projects, with their own supplies and meet other students in a fun creative place. The adult open studio nights often order pizza and the kids love to listen to the radio while they laugh and work on projects!
The time slots will be in 1 hour increments with a fee of $15.00 per hour attached to them.

FAQ
When can I sign up for independent studio time?
Once you are enrolled in a workshop or scheduled for private art lessons with us we will discuss how the independent studio time for students works.
How much does it cost and how do I pay?
The price is $15.00 per hour. We will have a signup sheet with a "time in" and "time out" that must be paid before you leave that day or in advance. This can be paid by credit card, venmo or cash. Simply choose your day and timeslot and pay online :)
Are supplies included?
If you are staying for independent open studio time right after a workshop that offers the time extention - supplies are included as you are able to continue working in the same medium that you are taking the class in. We will also have addons and upgrades available at an additional cost. If you would like to work on something else during this time. Please do! :) During normal open studio time you will bring projects from home to work on at the studio and use our easels or tables. These can include drawings & paintings
Are there any limitations to what I can work on?
Yes. We do not allow such projects as resin art or anything that we consider to be toxic or harmful to ourselves or other students. This includes turpentine solvents for oil paints, and we do not allow any oil varnishing at our studio. (I know! I know! but hear me out!) We offer a "solvent free" oil painting class using Chelsea Classical Studio materials. Exerpt from their website: "Chelsea Classical Studio Fine Art Materials are made from the highest quality, handmade, natural and archival artists materials, created using historic methods and techniques CCS Oils are all cold-pressed, non-toxic and naturally purified WITHOUT heat or chemicals, creating pure naturally pale oils." We reserve the right to refuse any mediums or projects that we deem inapropriate or to be unsafe. No refunds on open studio.
