Join us for our monthly Brampton Arts Organization Open Studio+ and make the BAO office your studio for the day.
Why +
because it’s more than just an open studio. In addition to creating a space for community to gather, share work and support each other, we will also be hosting skill-building workshops during each Open Studio+.
+ is …
A space to foster creativity and encourage experimentation in an atmosphere of exchange, conversation, and support.
A place to encounter fellow creatives and learn about their work and practice.
A chance to find future collaborators or reconnect with old friends.
A studio to work on your own in-progress pieces and be inspired by someone else’s project.
An opportunity to learn new skills and explore different art practices and tools.
Most importantly, Open Studio+ is FREE to attend and open to all skill levels.
As always, you can bring your own works in progress to Open Studio+. You can use our art supplies and materials to start a new project, take pictures in our Photography Studio, find inspiration in our Community Library, record beats in our Recording Studio and so much more. Drop-in anytime between noon and eight p.m. and make the most of this artistic environment.
