Half of the Providence Art Club's four historic properties on Thomas Street are dedicated private studio spaces for more than a dozen members of the organization. In Deacon Taylor House and the Fleur de Lys Building, artists are regularly at work on new projects.
Deacon Taylor House Studios
Built in 1784 by Deacon Edward Taylor, the Deacon Taylor House holds the studios of twelve members of the Providence Art Club. The ground floor also has a rotating common gallery space where these artists share recent work.

Visiting the Art Club's Studio Buildings
Typically open by appointment or by chance, The Art Club's two studio buildings also often host open houses and other events. To schedule a tour or visit, guests are encouraged to email Gallery Manager Michael Rose at michael@providenceartclub.org. Both buildings are located on Thomas Street in the heart of historic College Hill. Ample street parking is available nearby along Benefit Street and North Main Street and the studios are just a five minute walk from the Providence Amtrak Station and the Kennedy Plaza Bus Terminal. When visiting at the invitation of a PAC member, guests may utilize PAC's on site parking, details of which are available on our parking and accessibility map. Please note that unfortunately neither studio building is accessible to individuals utilizing wheelchairs or walkers. The Art Club's galleries up the hill are fully accessible.
For Rental Inquiries:
On site studios at the Art Club are exclusively rented to current members of the organization. There are no studio vacancies at this time, but if you are a PAC member who would like to inquire, or add your name to the wait list for a studio, you may contact Membership Services Coordinator Julia Hubbard at julia@providenceartclub.org.
