Creative Community Night is our reimagined take on collaboARTive’s Open Studio Nights—still rooted in the magic of artists working in their studios with our doors open to visitors, but redesigned to prioritize what people are craving most right now: real connection.

It’s less “walk through and look” and more “come in, make something, and belong.

Expect an easygoing evening of:

• Open studios artist conversations
• Hands-on, come-as-you-are creative activities (no experience needed)
• A welcoming space to slow down, connect, and build community through art

Mar 21, 2026, 7:00pm to 9:00pm Timezone: Eastern Time (US & Canada)
May 16, 2026, 7:00pm to 9:00pm Timezone: Eastern Time (US & Canada)
