We've got a surprise for you...
Broad Room is excited to announce our new program for teaching artists, TRADE SCHOOL X BROAD ROOM. Trade School is Broad Room’s virtual workshop program for artists, creatives, culture workers, and makers to take advantage of our expertise and platform to share your knowledge and grow your creative business.
This program is for teaching artists looking to take their in-person workshops online, find new clients + customers, and get technological help to make their classes virtual. It is more important than ever during the Covid-19 pandemic to diversify your revenue streams, so it’s the perfect time to start teaching workshops online!

Cosmic Library update
The Cosmic Library is set to open in early September! We will know more in the next month or so as we wait to hear back about funding for this program. We are beyond excited to see all the anticipation for the project from the community. We’ll be in touch soon with more details as soon as we can.
Get Your Social Justice On: Online Zine Class
Pissed off about the world, angry about politics, frustrated by what’s become “normal,” suffering from your own anxiety when sheltering-in-place?
Make a zine or two! Or a lot and give them out at the next protest! Mail them to your friends! Keep them to yourself! Say what you want to say — it’s like journaling with images and words but public!
Learn how to make two structures from Hedi Kyle’s The Art of the Fold from a single sheet of paper. I’ll send you four sheets of tabloid (11" x 17") paper, template for pop-up, and a bone folder by snail mail; you provide the mark making materials (rubber stamps, pens, paints, cut outs, label maker, etc) and a theme around social justice. It doesn’t have to be an issue surrounding Covid 19, but it can be. Then we’ll ZOOM it up.
This is a free class. Because I'm sending the supplies through First Class Mail, sign ups will be cut off by August 13 at midnight. Thank you to College Book Art Association Rising Together Micro Grant Program for funding and Broad Room for hosting! Your zines and photos of the workshop will be posted on social media and to the CBAA Rising Together Zine Archive.
Limited to 10 people.
