RSVP: DCAL Mid-Week Open Studio
Are you tired of tech? Are you missing hanging out with others? Come, unwind, and refresh with us! Drop-in, create, and share about the week so far and plan for what the end of the week and weekend have in store. Let’s hang out and get creative together! No art experience required.

What is an open studio?
Open Studio is a community space for people to spend their creative time doing what they enjoy, such as writing, art making, reading, cooking, chatting, or resting. Our Mid-Week Open Studio is a four part series taking place in Spring 2021. You are invited to enter the space, create art in response to prompts and themes or create your own projects alongside fellow participants. You are not expected to explain your project, though if you are up for chatting about it, let us know!

How long is the open studio?
The virtual studio is open from 3:00 - 5:00pm CST
You can drop-in and take off at any time
You can stay as long as you’d like

What do you bring?
Though there will be materials suggested for each session, you can come with any art/craft materials you may have (even just a pen and paper). For people who do not identify as artists, bring your curiosity. Come and check out what other people are making. Let’s explore and exchange new ideas together!

Funder / Host Information
This event is brought to you the Disability Culture Activism Lab (DCAL), a joint project of Access Living and the department of art therapy and counseling at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.

Disability Culture Activism Lab (DCAL) is housed under the department of art therapy and counseling at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. DCAL is a platform for creative advocacy projects and disability allyship training. In partnership with Access Living’s Arts and Culture Project, DCAL provides teaching and hands-on learning through disability justice--a framework that examines disability in connection to other forms of oppressions and identities. Using a peer support and collective care model, disability community members and art therapy graduate students collaborate as disability culture makers for social change.

This program is partially supported by a grant from the Illinois Arts Council Agency.
