About Green Lung Studio

Green Lung Studio was built by two artists who wanted a place to try things—loudly, quietly, imperfectly. Not a venue. Not a theater. A playground. A lab. A home. We know what it’s like to scrape by in a city that forgets its artists. So we made the kind of space we always needed—a place to test ideas, build weird things, and share the mess with people who get it.

Green Lung Studio has year round dance, music, cinema and more. Stay up to date at greenlungstudio.com or @greenlungstudio on Instagram.
