The Founding Offer

A woman with long dark hair, wearing a sleeveless beige and green top with maroon pants, is sitting cross-legged on a beige couch, smiling and looking off to the side. She's accessorized with colorful bracelets and a nose ring. The background shows a beige wall, a window with sunlight, and a framed picture.

Founding Alchemist membership is $45/month — reserved for our first 20 Alchemists, and locked in for as long as you stay. We ask for a six-month commitment to begin, so you have time to truly settle into a practice. Once those 20 spots are filled, membership moves to $75/month.

What is the Inner Circle?

People engaging in a painting activity in a bright room with yellow curtains and indoor plants.

Once a month, Alchemists gather simply to be in community. Conversation over light refreshments and a drink. A space to share, to witness, and to be witnessed, held the way everything here is held: without pressure, without critique.

Free for every Alchemist.

A few good questions

  • Open Studio is come-as-you-are studio time — the space, the materials, and room to create at your own pace, with no class and no agenda. Your two monthly sessions are included in your membership; any extra sessions are just $10.

  • Because a creative practice takes root over time, not overnight. Six months gives you space to settle in and let it become a real part of your life. After that, you're month to month, for as long as it feels good.

  • Our first 20 Alchemists keep the $45/month rate for as long as they stay members — even after the price rises to $75. Your rate never goes up while you're with us.

  • Yes. Every Alchemist gets one free guest visit to an Open Studio Session— share the space with someone you love.

  • None at all. All you need to bring is curiosity.

  • After your first six months, you're free to pause or cancel anytime — no hard feelings, the door always stays open.
