Our Programs
North Pole Studio offers three programs for our artists: the Studio Program, Exhibiting Artist Program, and our workshops & classes.
Studio & Exhibition artists share a serious interest in creating and exhibiting work, while our workshops and classes are open to a wider community of artists at all levels of practice. Across programs, staff and volunteers support artists with developing their creative practice and pursuing opportunities aligned with their personal and professional goals.
Exhibiting Artist Program
This virtual program serves artists from across the country who work from home, live in services desert or face barriers to physical attendance. Artists receive professional support with documenting, marketing and selling their work. There is no membership fee, and a percentage of every art sale goes back into the studio to support this programming.
Professional Studio Program
This program provides local artists with the space, materials and staff support to create, exhibit and sell their original work. Artists receive individualized guidance to cultivate a self-directed personal and professional practice, developing a portfolio of exhibition-ready work.
Workshops + Classes
Our workshops and classes are open to artists 16 years+ who identify with autism or an intellectual/developmental disability. They are an opportunity for a wide community of artists to gather and develop their creative practice, as well as a way for our studio artists to explore a new materials and mediums. If you’re new to the studio, this is a great place to start!
