Open Studio Meeting: January 31, 2026, at 1 to 4 pm
Registration Opens on January 10, 2026
We are delighted to launch the first of a series of Open Studio meetings, MAA's new activity for members and their guests - a welcoming creative space designed for artists of all levels to gather, share, and grow together. All artists and art enthusiasts are welcome. Whether you’re a painter, sculptor, photographer, writer, or multidisciplinary creator, this is your time to immerse yourself in the joy of making art—side by side with a supportive community.
Open Studio is a casual, drop-in session to foster the 3Cs:
Creativity, Conversation, and Community.
Artists will:
- Work on personal projects in a calm, inspiring environment
- Meet fellow creatives, exchange ideas, and spark new collaborations
- Share techniques, receive feedback, and uplift one another
- Build community, inspiration, and momentum for your creative journey
What to Bring: Bring your own art project and supplies and your own snack and drink. And bring your ideas and your passion - you will find support & community among friends.
Workshop Limit: 20 members and their guests (members may bring one guest).
Workshop Location: Oasis Learning Center, Macy’s Home Store (2nd floor) 7125
Democracy Blvd, Bethesda, MD 20817
