Events
Artists are an independent lot and set their own hours of operation, but once in a while we can agree on a time and place to open the doors and showcase our amazing talents to the public! Please see below for all open studio events at the building, and also any upcoming artist events and exhibitions.
While we love our furry friends, the Northrup King Building has a no-pet policy. Service Animals are welcome, please leave your companion animal at home while visiting the artists and during events.
ADA Accessible | Passenger Elevator | Plenty of Free Parking!
Pro Tip: You can join our mailing list to stay up-to-date on upcoming events (like the cool art-lover you are).
