Applications are currently being accepted for two studio spaces at the Spokane Art School. All active artists over the age of 25 are invited to apply.
The Spokane Art School is a non-profit arts institution established in 1968. Our mission is to teach Spokane to make and enjoy art.
The Spokane Art School (SAS) is committed to fostering diverse, equitable, and intentional inclusivity in all aspects of our work to fulfill our mission, “Teaching Spokane to make and enjoy art.” We start from the assumption that everyone belongs and that we all benefit most when we learn from and with each other. The school creates opportunities for each person to explore their own beliefs, values, and cultures so that, as a community, we can fully embrace the experience, ideas, perspectives, and traditions of all who come to learn and create here. We collaborate to make a space where persons from all identities, backgrounds, viewpoints, and experiences are embraced, validated, and supported.
Applications will be accepted on a rolling basis until the studios are leased. The cost per studio is $400 per month and leases will be for one year in duration. Renewal is possible with the approval of both parties, but the cost per month may increase annually.
