Note: We are at capacity for affiliates unless you have a Brickbottom resident who has agreed to host you
Patron Tier - $175
Choose this option to help fund participation for early-career artists facing financial barriers. Your support keeps our community accessible and inclusive.
Member Tier - $125
Our regular pricing for Brickbottom Artist Association Members and ensures your ability to participate by using your own studio space or being assigned a space within our building.
Emerging Artists Tier - $50
To qualify as an emerging artist, you must meet at least one of the following criteria:
You are under 30 years old
You have fewer than 3 years of exhibition experience (solo or group shows)
You are currently enrolled in an undergraduate or graduate arts program
You are returning to art practice after a significant hiatus (5+ years)
You have a real financial need and would otherwise be unable to participate
No formal portfolio review is required. This is self-reported — we trust you to be honest about your stage of practice.
We require that Emerging Artists volunteer 5 hours of time to the Brickbottom Artists Association to help spread flyers, do gallery sitting, or help set up for our Open Studios event.
Need Help Covering Costs?
We want Open Studios to be accessible to all members of our community. If the registration fee is a barrier to participation, please reach out to openstudios@brickbottom.org to discuss volunteer opportunities that can help offset the cost. Let’s find a way to make it work — we’re happy to chat.
Late Registration Fee
To ensure we have enough time to prepare promotional materials and organize logistics, registration will increase $25 each tier for anyone who signs up after October 8. We strongly encourage artists to register early to avoid this fee and ensure full inclusion in marketing and printed materials.
Registration Closes on Oct 31st.
After this time, if you choose to participate as a resident, you cannot be included in any marketing materials, directories, or signage. No affiliates will be accepted after Oct 31st.
What happens if I register, but can no longer participate?
If you need to back out of the event for whatever reason, we’ll refund half of your participation fee if you cancel up to two weeks before the event. After that, we will not be able to offer a refund.
For Affiliate (Non-Resident) Artists:
We’ll try to match you with a space or host
If you’ve shown before, reach out to your former host and see if they’ll host you again
We only have about 25 spots available for non-residents and they are first-come, first-served. If no space is available, you’ll get a refund
You may use your own display or lighting equipment
