At Austin Cinemaker Space, our mission is clear: to offer a sustainable and efficient studio program that equips people with everything they need to create, produce, and thrive in the creative industries.
We've revolutionized the concepts of "studio" and "creative workspace," disrupting the conventional hourly rates common in most creative environments. Our groundbreaking initiative introduces an affordable studio membership program, providing unparalleled support for artists, creatives, and organizations in Central Texas.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Imagine a concept akin to a gym membership but tailored to the arts aka artists—photographers, filmmakers, small arts organizations, dancers, or theatre companies—seeking consistent workspace, studios for creation, rehearsals, and more.
Instead of facing exorbitant hourly fees like most for-profit studios, you can join our membership program filled with a community of like-minded individuals, gaining access to what you need, when you need it, without the constraint of budgeting per hour or reservation. Plus, it doesn’t just include access to a coworking + studio spaces —you gain access to equipment and resources too.
BUT WHY THOUGH?
Our objective is not profit extraction; instead, we are committed to establishing a community-centric program that provides sustainable, long-term solutions for access to the arts. In essence, we are here for you because, like you, we are artists who recognize the need for a space like this to cater to our community.
