A free monthly online studio to create in community.
Studio Hours is a quiet, shared online space for people who want to create in the presence of others. There are no directives given or expectations assumed - the space offers a simple structure for returning to your own projects or passions.
You might be writing, painting, drawing, collaging, sewing, researching, archiving, or persuing a project less easily categorised. The focus of this time isn’t on what you make, but having a space to continue making.
.✦ ܁˖ Format
The structure of each session gently follows:
- ✧ arrival into the space
- ✧ a brief group check-in (optional)
- ✧ dedicated independent creative time
- ✧
a closing check out to reflect on your process (optional).

What this time supports
Studio Hours may appeal to you if:- ✧ you find it easier to begin when others are also working
-
✧
you are neurodivergent (ADHD, autistic, or differently patterned in attention and rhythm)
-
✧
you have personal, artistic, or research-based projects you want to return to but struggle to alone
- ✧ you find creativity easier to sustain in company
- ✧
you are looking for a low-pressure space to simply show up and continue
You don’t need to identify as an artist, and there is no expectation of productivity or output.
It’s important to note that Studio Hours aren’t therapy, neither are they teaching hours or group critiques -- they offer a shared space for independent creative work.
Studio Hours exists because often we don’t need to take in more -- more instructions, guidaince, how-to’s, or advice -- we actually just need continuity and consistency. You might have heard the phrase create more than you consume -- this is what Studio Hours is here to support: output rather than input.
.✦ ܁˖ Access
Studio Hours is free to attend.
Sessions take place online via video call. You are welcome to join with your camera on or off, and to stay for as much or as little of the session as feels right.
Booking is available through email, please get in touch for more information.
