Art Courses

With a Membership base built of both experienced and novice creators, The Artists Collective will offer a variety of classes aimed at various levels of skill, and age groups, taught by local professional artists to help expand and enrich our community. Additional classes in different forms of art can and will be added to the programs plan as additional teachers are found.  

Gallery Services

Every building has corners, walls, and countertops, and The Artists Collective plans to use those normally unused spaces of our facility to their fullest, as gallery space. Allowing us to both display the beautiful art created by our collective members and assist them in growing their own small art businesses by offering sales of the displayed art.  

Work Space Rentals

Need a place to create in outside of your home? Sometimes as artists we may need more space, a specific piece of equipment, a quiet environment, or a new setting to work in. The Artists Collective is here for you. With a variety of private and individualized work spaces TAC has the space for Artists to create in.

Artisan Goods for Sale

Many small business artisans lack the funding and consumer base to open their own storefront. The Artists Collective hopes to remove that barrier from the path of artists in monetizing their art. The Artists Collective features a variety of artisan goods for sale in one location. From the art of baking and cooking to writing and jewelry making TAC is interested in working with artists in our community to help all our businesses grow.

Professional Photography Events

One- or two-day special curated events, hosted by The Artists Collective, for armature and professional photographers to shoot in studio with professional models. These events provide both a learning experience for new photographers to work with professional subjects, as well as allow professional photographers to expand their portfolio in safe and well-maintained environment with access to equipment and advise from experts and other artists. 

Community Events

The Artists Collective aims to be a home for all artists in our community, and as such we are planning to host regular scheduled community event nights, that will both allow us to feature the work of performance artists in our area and provide a safe and neutral space for all community members to enjoy art and each other. These events will evolve as the needs and interests of the community are discovered over time.
