ABOUT THE BLUE PARROT STUDIO LAB
The Blue Parrot Studio Lab is an open network of creators and artists who support each other through skill-building engagements and interdisciplinary workshop opportunities.
These engagements may occur in person or on-line.
When in person, most often, these meetings take place at our Loft in Chicago.
Soon we will also be meeting in our Parisian studio.
