Open Studio Promotion

We need to gather a list of artists interested in committing to the Open Studio option as soon as we are open to the public. The Open Studio It is our cheapest art studio rental and I think it has the potential to be the most personally rewarding option. Think about sharing large open spaces with other local talented artists and visiting artists who may be teaching a workshop or are part of our artist in residence program. You, as an artist, have so much more to gain by being "out there" working in the open. Anyway, enough of my opinions...

Here's the deal: We are running a pre-lease promotion for Columbia, MO artists. If you sign up by March 31st for the $99/mo - Open Studio Membership, you get 50%* off your 1st months rent AND a free locker rental for life to keep your supplies on-site for as long as you continually** rent space at The Warehouse Studios. What a steal! Hurry, this offer won't last long! If you are ready to commit, post a response here in the forum. All I need is a basic comment like, "Hey, I'm interested..." or "Sign me up!" Feel free to keep your contact info out of the forum (for your privacy), your username will suffice (as long as you provided a legit email address when you registered your user name) for me to contact you.

How do I get on the list for studio space?

If you want to reserve your private studio space, you have to act now. Once the studios are open, individual spaces will go fast (if they aren't already booked by then). Orr street studios are at 100% occupancy last time I checked. I believe they are in the process of expanding to other buildings to meet the needs of local artists. If you are interested in securing your studio, we ask that you take a tour of the space to make sure it's right for you. Then we ask for a $50 deposit and an intent to lease letter. The $50 deposit is to secure your space while we finish building out your space.

When will private studios be available for rent?

This has always been a hard question to answer. Dates change because progress is always changing. We have come a long way in the past couple years and we are finally towards the end of the journey. Contractors are saying late Fall, early Winter we should be able to start using the space. My answer is based on the goals of others. I expect The Warehouse Studios to be available for private studio rental in November/December. I will post updates as I receive them.

How much does a private studio cost?

Private studios will require a 12 month lease and will be priced according to size. We are basing our pricing on $1/sq.ft. (roughly). By the time studios are officially available, they will be built-out and have individual prices attached to each space. We will post floorplans as soon as we have confirmed the final layout. At this time, we believe our minimum studio space will be $200/month.
