    Our rates are intentionally set below comparable downtown office rents and are supported in part by sponsorship and community fundraising.

    We are committed to maintaining at least two subsidized studios for practicing Durham-based artists. We welcome inquiries from artists who may need sliding scale options.

Boardinghouse Arts offers 10 private studios and creative offices.

These spaces are best suited for artists who make small to medium-scale work, as well as creative professionals connected to the independent arts ecosystem.
