About Good Dad Studios

Our Mission

Located in an old office building, Good Dad Studios embraces the vintage aesthetic of the existing interior space. However, doing so is more than just an interior design decision. For Good Dad Studios this is a tribute to the history of the spaces that came before us; A conceptual decision to honor the history of Austin and an attempt to keep it weird.

The cultural and economic value of artists’ spaces is not a secret and in creating Good Dad Studios, there is a continuous effort to put the success of its artists first, while also providing opportunity for adjacent businesses to tap into the cultivation of culture.The artist studios rental prices have been set at below market rates and the range in studio sizes available has been designed to accommodate emerging as well as established artists. There will also be a section of Micro Studios available for art students, recent graduates, and artists first starting in their careers. 

Good Dad Studios values creating affordable studio space so that artists can thrive in Austin. An affordable studios is benificial to artists professional development and to encourage engagement in the greater austin community. Good Dad Studios aims to provide a home for artists to exist and grow together into a supportive and inclusive community, capable of positively impacting the community around them.
