Open Art Studio at the Arden (Alexandria)

Stop by the Arden and enjoy open art studio, which is a time to freely interact with art materials and express yourself through creativity.

To prepare: Writing and art materials will be provided but feel free to bring your own.

Meet up: We’ll meet in the community room at the Arden. A key fob is needed to access the building, so please message the OSG Events WhatsApp group upon arrival if you’re not an Arden resident.

Parking: Guest parking at the Arden is limited, so carpooling and using ride share or public transport is recommended. If you need to park your vehicle, please email [email protected] in advance of the event for further instructions. Your vehicle is at risk of being towed otherwise! 

Contact: We will communicate changes of plans via WhatsApp, so please join the OSG Events WhatsApp group to receive important event updates. An invitation to our WhatsApp will be emailed with your event registration confirmation. 

Weather Cancellation: In case of unsafe weather conditions, an announcement will be made on WhatsApp at least 2 hours prior to the start of the in-person event.

Accommodations: At OSG, our staff are not direct service providers, so we ask that each participant attending an event brings any personal support they may need for their well-being and engagement. This may include, but is not limited to, caregivers, communication partners, or mobility aids. That said, with prior notice, we can arrange group-wide accommodations during event planning. These might include ensuring wheelchair-accessible routes or selecting allergen-safe menus. Additional accommodations are available upon request, though they may not be listed here. To discuss your specific needs and help us make our events more inclusive, please contact us at [email protected] with the subject line “Accommodation Request.”

*Note: Sign-up is mandatory. Be sure to RSVP so we know to expect you.
