DIY Community Studio
Affordable rentals
Looking out over the Metchosin village core, this bright, warm and sunny 1000 square foot space is now set aside for community use. The space includes great acoustics, access to a sink and counter, two adjacent washrooms, the upper hallway exhibition area, and external exit via the grand, newly designed staircase. And there is ample free parking.
Book this space for webinars, seminars, workshops, and projects for individuals, small groups, or classes.
The studio was recently painted by a group of volunteers and offers an assortment of chairs, drawing boards, easels, a model platform, drawing horses, two large wooden tables, a digital projector and screen.
