We provide established and aspiring artists and craftspeople with studio facilities, education, artist residency, and open doors.  We offer 24/7 access to a printmaking shop, darkroom, digital lab, communal workspace, and individual studios to support production, creative practice, and discourse.  We are professionals, amateurs, teachers and students. S23 is an energizing incubator for the current generation and the next one, keeping our creative community robust and evolving, producing the goods and services that move through our city’s galleries, businesses, schools, festivals, homes, and life.
