About The Studios of Key West and the Exhibitions and Education Programs:
The Studios is a multifaceted organization at the heart of Key West’s cultural life, whose mission is to use the arts to foster a creative and connected island community, and promote Key West’s reputation as a place where artists can thrive and create new work. From our growing island campus, we present exhibitions, theater, concerts, classes and other programs, and provide space for artists through a nationally recognized residency program.
The Studios currently presents more than 100 classes and 24 exhibitions annually, in the four gallery spaces and two classrooms over which the DEE has primary responsibility. The artists we present include international artists with work in major collections, established local artists, and others who may be exhibiting for the first time. Our curatorial focus is on work that is relevant to our local environment and introduces our audiences to new voices and ideas. Classes are primarily geared for adults, and include writing, music and other disciplines alongside the visual arts. Youth programs offer room for growth and include gallery visits by schools, after school classes and summer camps.

With one of the tallest buildings – and most spectacular views – in town, the Hugh’s View rooftop terrace serves as The Studios’ creative space in the sky. The terrace sits four stories above street level and offers panoramic views of the island. The Kitwald Stage glows in the golden twilight of our sunset Old Town New Folk performances.
With original seating from its days as a Masonic temple, the Helmerich Theater has been updated to also include floor seating. As a black box theater, the set up is intimate but professional. The Old Town New Folk backdrop and set, created by Rick Worth, fill the room with a charming vibe and set the stage for concerts that leave guests feeling like they really got to know the performer.
