  ARTIST STUDIOS

The Crucible has private and shared (work-only) studios available at low-cost rent for artists and artisans who are interested in being part of a collaborative, creative environment.

Join the vibrant community of artist and artisans of the Crucible. Tap into many opportunities, including classes, volunteering and access to tools and equipment.

Benefits include:

  • 16' x 16' studio spaces (approximate)

  • 16' of industrial pallet racking

  • 120v electrical service

  • 24-hour access to a private studio, bathrooms, and a studio sink in a secure building

  • Doors between the main Crucible studio and the rental studios will be unlocked during the following times:
      Mon-Thurs: 2 pm - 10 pm
      Sat and Sun: 10 am - 6 pm
      Fridays: Closed
    Outside these hours, these doors will be locked.

  • During studio hours the Tool Room will be available to renters and you will be able to check out certain tools from the monitor.

  • Access to all Crucible lab sessions, every quarter, FREE of charge - as long any specific qualification levels are met. In order to qualify, you must attend a training meeting to become authorized in the studio area. These meetings must be arranged with a studio manager during regular studio hours. Pre-registration for labs will be necessary as there are limited spaces available.

  • All tenants will receive a complimentary Pyro level membership to The Crucible. This entitles you to early registration for all classes, 10% off of 2 classes per year, a Crucible t-shirt, and invitations to members' only events.

Tenants are encouraged to volunteer and get to know studio management.

Shared spaces are available at $325/month, or private spaces at $600/month.
