Making Art.  Changing Lives.

The LivingRoom welcomes EVERYONE as an artist and believes that when we make art together we change our world for the better, one creation at a time.

The LivingRoom Community Art Studio is a registered Charity that provides supportive opportunities for individuals and families living in and around Durham Region to express themselves and connect with others through experiences of free art making, skill sharing and dialogue. Studio services are offered for free in order to ensure that all members of the community - including those who are most marginalised - can take part and experience and benefit from the therapeutic nature of art making while also contributing to their community's cultural development.

The studio's mission is to promote positive self-identities, strengthen and build relationships, and inspire community driven action through providing inclusive, non-judgemental space for meaningful creative social interaction to occur.

At The LivingRoom we believe that EVERYONE is an artist and that when we make art together we change our world for the better, one creation at a time. 

**Due to the Global Pandemic we have sadly had to close our storefront studio space.  However, we continue to offer free Virtual Art Hive programming every week on Facebook, Instagram and YouTube for everyone who wishes to take part, wherever they may be. We are also working towards the creation of a Mobile Community Art Studio, which will enable us to truly meet community members where they are at, and create with them in safe and manageable ways as we all recover from the pandemic. Your support helps us continue to serve our community, and meet this new challenge with grace and renewed creativity. Thank you so much for being a friend to the LivingRoom!
