ABOUT THE SPACE
The Art Place includes a dedicated art studio, a music room, and a waiting area, all with ample natural light. The space is equipped with tables, chairs, a utility sink, and a restroom. We encourage prospective instructors to schedule a visit to ensure the space meets their needs.
- The art studio can accommodate up to 10 students, depending on the needs of the class.
- The music room can accommodate 4–5 students.
How it Works
While we offer an online booking system, payments are not processed through this platform; instructors will collect payment directly from students. We will share classes on our website and social media channels, but instructors are encouraged to promote their classes to help ensure full attendance. At this time, The Art Place does not provide materials, so instructors are expected to bring and remove any supplies needed.
Fee Structure
We never want the cost of the space to get in the way of a great idea. Whether renting the space privately, or teaching a class, we want to keep the cost affordable for artists.
For classes, The Art Place charges a fee of 10% of total class revenue, with a $5 minimum per class. (Example: A class generating $200 in revenue would incur a $20 fee. For smaller classes (e.g., $35 total revenue), the minimum $5 fee applies.e a class here.)
For private rentals, we offer a sliding scale with rates starting at $10.
Our model allows instructors to be autonomous with their curriculum and class with support from The Art Space. All classes are independently designed by the artist themselves.
We also have a smaller private lesson room perfect for music lessons, 1 on 1 tutoring or small meetings.
Parking & Location
Parking is available at the plaza. We are located upstairs at 285 Main Street, Suite 3 in Fryeburg, ME (formerly the drivers ed school). We do not have an elevator.
