Some artists are also willing to conduct studio visits with individuals who are interested in their work.  In addition to private studios, there are several collective studio spaces in Jacksonville where artists not only create but also hold critical conversations with their peers about techniques, processes, and bodies of work.  These interactions serve artists greatly as they develop in their career and work to expand their markets. Studio spaces include:
​
  • CoRK Arts District
  • Phoenix Arts District
  • The Union Art Studios
