Selected artists receive a commission to create 25 “shares” for the program. Interested collectors will purchase a share from Side Street and, in return, receive boxes or portfolios of locally produced artwork at intervals during the season.

Featured works could include nearly anything. What sounds good? How about specially-pressed vinyl 7-inch records, screen prints, series of small functional ceramics, photography, letterpress editions of a poem or short story, or small original paintings by local artists? Each member share includes one piece from each of the nine CSA featured artist works over the season at pick-up events.

For the Side Street CSA, share prices range between $250 to $300 each, and come with studio visits and pickup parties, and are a great way to connect with local artists and art supporters. CSA shares can be purchased here.

You may purchase an annual Side Street Membership here.

Standard Share: $300 annually

Discounted Share: $275 if you are currently a SSSA Member, OR you purchase an annual $50 SSSA membership.

Side Street Studio Arts invites artists of all disciplines to apply for our 2025–2026 Community Supported Art (CSA) program — a unique opportunity to create and distribute original artwork directly to local supporters and collectors.

Inspired by the model of Community Supported Agriculture, the CSA connects artists to the community through a limited-edition “art box” share system. Shareholders receive curated seasonal boxes featuring original works by local artists, plus special bonus content like performance-based materials and donated event tickets.

We are seeking 9 artists total — 3 for each seasonal CSA editions to be released:

• Winter 2025 (December)

• Spring 2026 (April)

• Summer 2026 (August)

Application Deadline: July 20, 2025 Submission Fee: $10
