Take 3 minutes to let us know your needs! Do you want studio space? Support services? Community?

Creative Exchange Cooperative is in the process of attempting to purchase a building in Nelson to facilitate collaborative and affordable studio space for artists and creatives. We are sending out this survey to find prospective tenants and understand what the current needs are in our community.
As a community service cooperative, our goal is to offer subsidized, affordable and stable studio space with in-house access to creative business supports.
We hope to be able to offer rental opportunities this upcoming fall.
