New artists join Access Gallery on a trial period of 3 to 6 months. Currently, we are only accepting new artists at the beginning of a new semester, and that are on the SLS/DD waiver. Some exceptions do apply. 

If timing and space allow, qualified individuals can join classes and/or work during open studio where they can create art, learn about the staff and the gallery, and determine together if Access Gallery is a good fit. New participants must follow a schedule that is set with staff and show a sustained commitment to art-making.

If you meet these requirements and would like to learn more, please reach out to Cris Ciani at  cris@accessgallery.org.
