Creative Studios Coming Soon!
Ceramics Studio at the Studio at Colton
CANO Creative Studios are interdisciplinary creative entrepreneurial incubators, each with its own creative-industry focus, that provide rental office and studio space, exhibition and presentation facilities, along with shared equipment and meeting space to artists, creative professionals, and community cultural organizations. In addition to shared facilities, residents have access to CreativeTech, CANO’s technical support, business capacity building, and job training programming.
Residents at Creative Alliance Studios are accepted based on proposals for projects and activities planned for their use of the space, and upon their demonstration of commitment to developing creative and cultural opportunities in New Orleans. Residents at Creative Alliance Studios represent diverse creative disciplines, resulting in cross-discipline resource sharing and unique opportunities for collaboration.

CreativeTech at CANO’s Creative Studios delivers both short-term and long-term impacts for strengthening New Orleans’ creative economy. Services offered to artists, creative professionals, and cultural community organizations immediately expand the business capacity of the current generation of creative producers, resulting in residual benefits for New Orleans overall economy. Simultaneously, Creative Studios fosters mentorship roles between the current and future creative professionals and bearers of New Orleans’ culture.
CANO is currently working to relocate our Studio programs following a fantastic year in the Colton Middle School on St. Claude Avenue. If you’ve got a lead on a possible space (shuttered schools or public buildings, vacant commercial buildings, etc.) or would like to donate space, please contact Katherine Bray: bray@cano-la.org
