Studios for Rent at Midtown's Art Factory

Studios for Rent at Midtown's Art Factory

As awesome as it is, working at home has some challenges. There are interruptions and distractions, and, If your house is anything like mine, a very large dog who wants to be involved in whatever you're doing. If your work tends to get messy, things can get ugly really quickly.

The Art Factory in Cooper Young

This is where the Art Factory comes in. It's an old office building that's been converted into private studios for artists of all kinds. The rent is cheap (between $100 and $500 per month), and the spaces range in size from 80 - 400 square feet.

The artists that work in the Art Factory's 17 studios do all sorts of work - there are a few painters (one who's studio had paint splotches leading from the door to the washroom), multimedia artists, a textile artist and an architect.

In JD Graham's studio at the Art Factory

There's a plan to expand the Art Factory over the next year that will double the number of studios and add a lobby and gallery space.

If you're looking to get out of the house:

I am a painter interested in renting a studio. What do your studios cost to rent? I have an M.F.A. in painting, and a B.F.A. from the Memphis College of Art (when it was called 'the Academy')

Not a comment. Just a question. I am looking for oil portrait painters to paint with. I might be looking for a group studio if there are fellow portrait painters to paint with. I also am looking for a group that wants to paint together 1 or 2 times a week that will share in the cost of a live model.

Hi Chris (and all the others who commented). The best way to find out about prices and availability for the studio is to call the number listed above or visit their site, also linked above. They'll have the most up-to-date and accurate information!

I am new to MEM and need a space where I can do my stained glass work. Some of my work requires me to use power tools like saws and glass sanding equipment. I need a space about 100 sq ft. Can you help me? Thank you.....Jackie
