The Studio 303 SPAs – Once a month, our studio becomes a coworking space. With tables set up around the studio, participants are invited to work on their own things in their own time.
Each SPA centers around a specific topic, with relevant mentors present to answer questions and share their expertise.
The schedule and set up is designed to recreate a day at the spa: a quiet space with foot baths and massage devices, yoga mats and cushions for stretching and rest, a community lunch midday (gluten free & vegan) and free 10 minute professional chair massage appointments throughout!
Here we go again!
With summer winding down, you may be finding yourself a tad disoriented, amidst the excitement of the influx of ‘season launches’. Join us for Grant Spa + Kick-Start!; a coworking day to get organized, and make plans. Mentors will be present to help you gain an overview of your coming months; whether that’s scheduling rehearsals, planning which activities to get involved in, setting up budgeting tools, or calendar reminders. Mentors can also provide guidance on how to structure your next creation project according to the grant system, in line with your partnerships and needs. Bring the grant you’re currently working on or thinking of – now is a great time to advance on it!
MENTORS // Kim-Sanh Châu + Mari Deckers (Studio 303) + Claudel Doucet + Manuel Shink (LaSerre)
