The Point Artists Studios is a historic and vibrant artist community located in San Francisco, CA. Founded by sculptor Jacques Terzian in 1984, it is considered one of the largest artist communities in the United States, providing affordable workspaces for visual artists, musicians, and writers. Situated in the former Hunters Point Shipyard, the studios offer a unique and inspiring environment for creative expression.
With a rich history dating back to the 1800s, the Hunters Point Shipyard was once a bustling naval shipyard and repair station. Today, The Point Artists Studios preserves the legacy of this historic site by repurposing neglected buildings into affordable art studios. The community, now home to over 250 artists, continues to thrive under the vision and dedication of its founder, Jacques Terzian, who not only maintained the space but also practiced his own art, creating a truly inspiring and supportive artistic haven.
