Co-Op Studios

Art-making equipment and communal studio space for developing and professional artists!

The Union’s Co-Op Studios provide access to art-making equipment and communal studio space for developing and professional artists (ages 18+). Funds raised through Co-Op Pass sales are put right back into the Studios, helping us maintain equipment and purchase supplies.

Email Co-Op Studios Manager, Sarah Jones, at co-op@u-ca.org with any questions or to be added to the Co-Op newsletter.
