Do you rent artist studios?
At the moment, we don’t have available leases for artist studios. We’re happy to provide recommendations to local studios that offer long-term leases. We do provide studios for our Bresler Residents and Studio Fellows.
As a Bresler Resident or Studio Fellow, may I bring a school group to visit my studio?
