History
Studio Two Three is a community arts organization based in the Scott's Addition neighborhood of Richmond, Virginia. The studio was opened in 2009 by four women who were trying to find their place as artists in a city that undervalued the economic and civic role of the arts. The studio was founded to push against a trend of talented artists leaving Richmond for bigger cities with more arts opportunities; Studio Two Three envisioned Richmond as an anchor city instead of gateway. Today, Studio Two Three is a creative home to over 100 Richmond-area artists. We feature studio facilities, classes and workshops, artist residency, and open doors. We provide 24/7 access to printing presses, darkroom, digital lab, communal workspace, and individual studios to support art making for personal and social change. We are professionals, amateurs, teachers and students. Our mission is to empower artists to make art and make change.
