Studio Space for Rent. Lovely studio space in downtown Durham. We need to rent out the studio to keep the Durham Art School going, so please share. This quiet... space is excellent for an artist, craftsperson, or as an office for your business. You will be able to use the big gallery / art school area when you need to. Display your work or advertise in the large window facing the Main street. Lots of room for making art and entrepreneurship. See more
