SUPPORT studioELL

studioELL does not exist to satisfy institutions or market logics. We are a shifting space where art, pedagogy and community entangle — a site for critical discourse, collective care and ongoing refusal.

Since 2015, studioELL has been a gathering ground — part critique, part studio visit, part learning space. We create hybrid forums, online and in person, where artists meet to make, question and reimagine.

Our work has always been sustained by artists and community, not by corporate sponsorship or institutional funding. Now more than ever, we need your support to keep going.

We recently shifted away from using Fractured Atlas as our fiscal sponsor. Donations are now processed directly through john ros studio llc and are not tax deductible. This change allows us to streamline administrative processes, minimize costs and keep support as direct as possible. What you give does not pass through institutions — it goes directly to sustaining artists, educators and shared spaces of care and solidarity.

Thank you for joining us in sustaining studioELL. Your support helps us continue to radicalize learning, blur lines between art and life and insist on education as community, art as care and refusal as practice.

WORD OF MOUTH MATTERS

Thank you for sustaining this work.

Your generosity is not charity — it is solidarity.

WHAT ARE PEOPLE SAYING?

“Most artists consider themselves lifelong learners and yet we rarely get the opportunity to hone our best practices. Having found studioELL is exciting because now I have a new tool to help me evolve as an artist.”

— Melissa, Memphis, TN
