We are looking for outgoing volunteers who can do survey-taking for us during our Open Studios event. We will give you a full introduction to the artist studio program, equip you with all materials you need and provide on-site support. This is an opportunity to earn community service hours while you are having fun and engaging with our visitors in an artsy environment!
The Artists-in-Residence with the Cubberley Artist Studio Program open their studios to the public twice per year, in the spring and fall. These Open Studios events are free to the public and take place at Cubberley Community Center, 4000 Middlefield Road, Palo Alto. Artist studios are in the E, F, and U wings at the north end of the Center.
The Cubberley Artist Studio program is a unique, competitive program with established artists offering free, family-friendly programming to the local community. It provides rent-subsidized studio space and creative community for artists in exchange for community service. Twenty-two artists are currently in a long-term residency with the City of Palo Alto through the Cubberley Artist Studio Program. They work in a rich diversity of media including installation, mixed media, painting, printmaking, interdisciplinary art, photography, sculpture, film, textile, woodworking and performance.
