The Work Center campus will be electric with nightly readings and talks by our renowned faculty. With 24-hour studio access, you’ll be free to create any time you like. Enjoy daily breakfasts in the lounge, mid-week BBQ, Friday gallery strolls, receptions, and the beloved Student Open Studios and Readings.
