WELCOME!
Open: Saturdays 10am-2pm, First Fridays 6-9pm, or by appointment.
The Yards Collective, established in 2011 by a group of strong female identifying makers, is dedicated to providing a supportive and inclusive artistic space. Under the guidance of our committed director and passionate volunteers, we aim to foster a community of makers who uphold a high standard of craftsmanship.
Our space features over a dozen permanent studio spaces, a communal workspace, and a gallery area available for rental. As an arts incubator, we engage emerging and professional artists through exhibitions, specialized classes, and a vibrant membership program.
Our regular programming includes First Friday exhibitions, craft sales, and community events, bringing together diverse groups of art enthusiasts and creators. Our mission is to offer accessible, affordable, and functional art space while cultivating a supportive network of members building connections locally and beyond.
