Spring Street Studios

I didn’t know this place even existed before I went to a Unilocal event there (Which honestly was what made me sign up for Unilocal). I’ve never been to an actual art gallery where the artist themselves are alive and well, and it was a very interesting experience.
The place had two levels and hallways full of different types of paintings, photographs, and just creativity. There were a few things that definitely caught my eye like the picture I posted. It’s just amazing what people can come up with and makes you show appreciation for their talent. It showed me that everyone is unique and different in their own way. Seeing the price tags though is a different type of appreciation. I knew art pieces were expensive, but dayeem! It sure is motivating for people like me, cause when I can go into this place and drop $ 400 on a stick on a canvas, that piece will remind me everyday that «Mama, I’ve made it!» It’s definitely a place you could take your girl to and show her your more creative side. I definitely want to take mine here.

My daughter, grandchildren and I had a wonderful time! We enjoyed the vendors that were there and especially enjoyed the photos of fellow Unilocalers. The photos were not only artistic, but also informative, as it intrigued us to try the restaurants and the locations that were photographed.
This was not only a fun event, it was also a great opportunity to visit and engage with the establishment of artists in their studios that I had previously not visited.

I was completely unaware this existed until I attended a Unilocal event! This studio has 2 stories and what I can only assume hundreds of artists working. There is an open studio even every second Saturday of every month. I will definitely return to see the artist’s recent work.

Very airy & a great canvas, it allows the art to standout. I wish I knew about this location sooner.
I really enjoyed the artwork at this location. It’s spread out over 2 stories & approximately 80 artist studios that you can walk through & talk directly to the artist.
It felt like a trendy place without being pretentious! It’s part of a campus with 4 other studios in the neighborhood.
It’s also a great location for hosting events! Parking is free & easily accessible.
I’ll keep my eyes out for future events. Definitely worth a look!

Cool place! It’s like an incubator for creative minds. If I were more full-​time with my painting id love to have a studio here. I think this place is awesome for events.

A very unique and interesting studio! There’s such a mixture of artists and art work. We met a few wonderful artist, who were so kind and personable.

I went to Spring Street for a Unilocal event, and I didn’t know what to expect. When you arrive, it looks like you’ve parked in front of a large warehouse, but don’t worry, you’re at the right place. Immediately upon walking in, you feel like you’re in an art gallery with the white walls, bright lighting, geometric walls, and art hanging everywhere. (I’m not sure if that is the norm, or if it was just because of the Unilocal event.) Regardless, there are some really amazing and talented artists at Spring Street! I loved a lot of the work that was displayed. There is also a second floor that houses more studios; personally, I enjoyed the works upstairs more (but everyone has different taste in art).

There are great pieces of art. As soon as I get my place and my sister gets her house I will make sure to come back and get some for our places.

I recently attended a Unilocal event at this studio and I was blown away. I had no idea that Houston had anything like this. I of course knew about the Museum District, but it doesn’t have small, local artist studios. This place reminded me of downtown Santa Fe, NM. The smell, the look, the feel, it all took me back to Santa Fe where there are studios everywhere. I loved peeking my head into each artist’s room. They were all so different. I could definitely see myself spending a few hours wandering through the building and talking to each artist.

There are a few places that simply leave a lasting impression. This is one of them.
Spring Street Studios hosts an eclectic group of local artists. Today’s Unilocal event enabled me to enjoy an afternoon of art. I particularly liked how you could freely roam the hallways and enter into each artist’s studio while enjoying a stress free environment.
From delectable foodie photos, acrylic canvases and some of the most interesting displays I’ve ever seen, this place has something all can enjoy.

Lots of studio space here for different artists to do their thang. Its a big warehouse complete with a small theatre of sorts to watch productions. I just saw the Big Two Hearted Fest with interpretive dance along with music composed by Tim Hagans as well as the Core Trio.
Just read this description: «The program features the première of SKAMATO, a ska influenced work for dancers, trumpet, sax, tuba, bass and drums, that celebrates the vine ripened, non-​GMO tomato, featuring choreography by Michele Brangwen and music by Tim Hagans. In NO STANDING ANY TIME, 3 dancers and 3 musicians explore the nocturnal work between dreams, with sections of improvisation by all performers.» The first set was an interpretation of a Hemingway piece. Along with another set of new music in remembrance of Ornette Coleman.
Yeah, its as off the wall as it sounds, and really fun. $ 10 door fee for this particular event, and free wine & beer (donation’s appreciated). The performers mingle with everyone after the show. It was a great event, and it is a great venue which supports local artists.

What an awesome space! Spring Street Studios is a renovated warehouse that is leased out to many artists such as designers, marketing companies, screen printing, jewelers, etc. Once a month (second Saturday) they open their doors and the artists can showcase their work. They will have a DJ and food trucks out and open the studio to the public. They also have Fotofest at this location and this mont they featured Arab art.
There are a lot of activities going on and lots of awesome people within the studio walls.
Check it out.

Ok. I was only here for Unilocal’s Nifty Under$ 50 event, but the space is awesome for Houston’s burgeoning talent! I enjoyed checking out the many spaces that were open on this Saturday! Parking was great, which is always nice in Htown!

Thanks to Unilocal’s Nifty Under $ 50, I’ve now discovered Spring Street Studios. The interior houses local artist’s studios, which are open every second saturday of the month from 3 – 5. My husband and I are big art fans, so it was awesome to meet the artists, talk about the inspiration, and see the various works in development. We’ll be back to support our local Houston artists.

As one of the participating vendors for Unilocal’s Nifty Under $ 50 this year, I was privileged to get to check out the Spring Street Studios for the first time. The location is super easy to get to, with ample parking and very clean and bright.
There are numbers local artisans who have their own personal gallery spaces here and it made a great location for the holiday market. We got great foot traffic, and I feel it also boosted the shoppers for the private galleries as well. I didn’t get to check out the upstairs spaces, but the location is perfect for any artist looking for a home!
Go check it out!

Neat place for those who love art. Every room had an artist studio!

I always have a good time here. Lots of talented local artist lots of amazing activity. If there is an event here, you really DO want to come.

This is a great little theater for small plays. They have 3 – 4 rows of seats surrounding 3 sides of the stage. The seats are like plastic outdoor seats that look like they would be very uncomfortable after a while, but I was mistaken… The seats were actually quite comfortable. Tis is my 4^th small playhouse that I have been to in the past few months, and this is the first place that actually allows you to bring drinks into the theater area, so that you can sip on your drink while watching the show.
The theater is located in Sawyer Heights, an up and coming community. Lots of parking available, and the area looked fairly safe.
Overall, I had a great time, and I wold definitely recommend is place for future productions.

Varied and large studio space for local artists, along with an intimate theatre space along the lines of Main Street’s Rice Village location (albeit without the annoying posts).
Enjoyed a recent production of The Merchant of Venice here along with a Friday night open-​house and installation. They have regular open Saturdays, recommend you check it out. Conveniently located along the MKT bike trail near Target, along the way to downtown.

I’m sure some of you have heard of Winter Street Studios, well this is their new building. It’s so clean and white almost looks like a hospital. It’s very quiet and the spaces are beautiful. They rooms look different from one another instead of a bunch of cookie cutter layouts.
I had the pleasure of looking inside during their second saturdays open studios. It was cool being able see artists in their true environment. I probably will be looking into possibly renting a space if any spots are left for my gf’s painting.
