THE FUTURE

DEC 31, 2023
we vacate 

What happens next?

Dear Members of Espace Freestanding Room Community,


As you are aware, our studios have been a hub of artistic expression and collaboration for 15 years. 


It is with a heavy heart that we must vacate our current location by December 31st due to upcoming building renovations. 


We don’t know what the updated space will look like, nor what the new rent may be, and thus,
we need to talk:

ONLINE

MONDAY, OCTOBER 30TH
6:30PM - 8:00PM

@ Zoom
(rsvp for link)

IN-PERSON

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 3RD
6:30PM - 8:00PM

@ Espace Freestanding Room
(rsvp for snacks)

We believe that affordable studios are essential for artists.
Let's ensure this remains the reality.

Collaborate with us;
We want your suggestions and ideas regarding our collective future. 

Discussion topics will be:

Potential alternative spaces

Partnering with existing organizations

Building a transitional committee

We will also be recruiting volunteers to clean out our longstanding home, and organize a suitable send off.

We understand that this news might come as a shock, but we believe in the strength of this community and we are confident that together, we will navigate this challenge.

 

Should you have any questions or concerns in the meantime, please do not hesitate to reach out to us.

 

With heartfelt gratitude and anticipation,

 

Espace Freestanding Room Administration Team
