This Month! Open Studio — Suggested theme: "Traditional Costa Rican Lanterns"

Come create your own lantern at our studio for the September 14th Independence Eve celebration! You can craft your own lantern inspired by our suggested theme, no instructors needed, or simply enjoy our regular Open Studio with your own creative ideas.

Welcome to La Salita's Open Studio — let's get creative! 🏮

Open Studio is a welcoming creative space where you can start a new art project or continue one you’re already working on. It’s a time to explore ideas, experiment freely, and enjoy the process of making art—without worrying about supplies. Everything is provided; you just bring your creativity. For a $25 fee, you’ll have access to the studio for the full morning or afternoon session, in a relaxed and supportive environment open to all levels.

Important details to keep in mind:

• Please reserve in advance

• This is not an instructed class; however, a staff member will be available on-site to assist as needed

• You may choose your preferred medium, and we’ll provide a complete set of materials for that medium

  • If you finish your initial set of supplies and would like to continue creating, additional materials are available for a small fee:

    • $9 per canvas (includes extra acrylic paint)
    • $5 per watercolor paper (includes extra watercolor paint)
    • $3 per mixed media paper (includes access to additional materials such as charcoal, oil pastels, markers, glue, and more)

    This way, you can keep exploring your creativity at your own pace.

• Open to all ages

• Children under 6 must be accompanied by an adult
