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.

This discount is also available to those earning less than a living wage. To request an Equity Access code, please email education@interaccess.org.

This fee is used to cover the direct costs of materials and supplies and can range depending on the nature of the workshop. This is applied to the actual material retail cost, shipping (if applicable), and staff preparation/assembly (if applicable).
