Established in 2015, hummingbird studio is a free, accessible, and inclusive community art program located in downtown Olympia. We believe that art belongs to everyone and provide the supplies and space for people to get in touch with their creativity and connect with people they may not otherwise meet. Artists work independently or with as minimal support as necessary to express their personal vision. There is no instruction or critique. However, there is a weekly theme that aids in community building that artists can choose to also use in their art. hummingbird studio was created with the belief that art is an essential part of the human experience and critical to a healthy, vibrant community.
We’re hosting art sessions at Friendship Hall at the YWCA in collaboration with our friends at The Liberation Collective.
