Studio

Studio space for artists with emergent and digital practices.

The InterAccess Studio

Our 800-square-foot shared production studio at 950 Dupont St. is a space for artists working with emergent and digital practices. The InterAccess Studio is the home base for our Studio Members, and the site of our Open Studio and Workshop programming. Equipped with electronic work spaces, tools for machining and fabrication, and a 5G Wifi Network, the Studio is a great place to learn new technical skills and produce work in a community that values critical approaches to art and technology.

InterAccess is home to many fabrication and machining tools and vintage electronics available for use or salvage.
