Artist Cooperative Workshops and Studio Space

Our SFSNG Focus Group identified another essential piece of the community, a cluster where artists create an environment that facilitates their creative expression and financial success in the world. Affordable studio space, workshop cooperatives, buying in bulk, or just being in close proximity to each other for cross-fertilization makes for a mutually-supportive way of life.

When the opportunity is made available to share kilns, join a woodworking cooperative, create an outdoor arts and crafts market, or be a member of a local gallery, both artists and the surrounding neighborhood benefit from creativity flowing in their community. With the smells and sights and sounds of creativity pumping, kids, teens, and adults get inspired and motivated to develop new skills!
