Art is an integral part of the human experience, and is vital for society and culture. It stimulates creative thinking, preserves traditions, initiates social change, contributes to the economy, and enhances mental and emotional well-being.

collaboARTive is dedicated to providing affordable studio space for artists to develop a practice. As with any career, practice and space are necessary for growth, and an art studio serves as the place for an artist to hone and advance their skillset. Accessing an art studio can dramatically impact the work a visual artist produces and ultimately influence their success as a professional.
