Want to host a workshop or event?
The DrawTogether Studio offers 1,000 square feet of versatile creative space to teach, make, and share. Affordably priced to support and grow the creative community, the studio is available for rent on weekends and weeknights to artists, teachers, and creative practitioners from all backgrounds.
The Studio is stocked with basic art supplies and tea, and features a library filled with art books, a comfy living room space, and an outdoor sitting area. The Studio can comfortably fit groups of 8 to 16 people, depending on your medium and how much working space each person needs.
We are open to hosting all sorts of workshops, with one requirement: Everything that happens in the DrawTogether Studio is in service of making art, supporting creativity, deepening personal connections, and fostering community resilience.

How does this work?
You fill out and submit the form linked here.
Once we invite you to host and the date is locked in, we’re on! Participants register directly with YOU, so you create a system that works best. Most hosts create a page on their website with a detailed description, fees, and RSVPs. You send us all that info.
We publish your event listing with a brief workshop description and sign-up link on our website.
We share your event on our Instagram account (@DrawTogether.Studio) in a collab with you!
You sell out, host an amazing workshop, and everyone is THRILLED. And can’t wait to do it all again.
There are more nitty-gritty details about access, clean up, and more, but we can talk about that once we’re rolling.
Booking FAQ
-

-
We are open to hosting anything you can think of that falls within The DrawTogether Studio's mission (see tiny print at the bottom of the page!) TL;DR: you gotta make something, and you gotta do it in person, with other people.
-
Because it’s important to us that the quality of the workshops is high, we only accept working creative professionals with teaching experience of some kind. Circus school is A-OKAY. While not necessary, it’s helpful to have an established audience, as event promotion is your responsibility.
-
We offer studio tours for potential hosts 2x a month. Please email events@drawtogetherstudio.com to schedule.
-
Workshops are BYOM (Bring your own materials.) And also, we have basic art supplies on hand for you to use if you’re in a pinch: scissors, tape, pens and paper and pencils, colored pencils, that kind of stuff.
-
The DrawTogether Studio is priced way below market rate to make it affordable to everyone, helping keep prices down for participants, creating a virtuous circle of creative opportunity. If you are unable to afford the full fee, DrawTogether Studio offers a limited number of discounted rental opportunities. Let’s call it a “DTS Fellowship.” Please inquire.

Yes! The space is bright during the daytime, but we have ways of blocking enough light to project on the rear wall. Someday we may get a pull-down screen. That would be fun.
-
Yes! There is a ramp in the front of the building on Lowell Street. While we have a small private bath inside the studio, ADA-compliant bathrooms are also available within the main building, located approximately 50 yards away.
-
It wouldn’t be a studio without one. :)
