GETTING STARTED

Starting in 2022, The Studio at Tilt Institute has a new process for working in The Studio. 

  1. Please begin by completing The Studio Orientation Form here
  2. All users of The Studio are required to be a Member of TILT Institute. For more information on what type of membership best fits, please see this guide.
  3. A Tilt staff member will be in touch with an access code that you will use to enter the space.
  4. Reservations must be made two business days in advance. You can reserve a time slot here.
  5. Attend your reservation.
  6. Before you leave The Studio, email the quantity and image size of your prints to kyahrling@tiltinstitute.org

When working in The Studio, we expect you to have a working knowledge of the equipment and software that you intend to use and you should have the confidence to work independently.

All printing is done through Adobe Photoshop or Adobe Lightroom, so a basic foundation in either of these applications is necessary to work and print in The Studio. If you lack this experience, it is recommended that you schedule a tutorial. You can do so by contacting kyahrling@tiltinstitute.org.

The cost for using The Studio is $20 per hour (minimum of 2 hours) plus a $4.00 per square foot ink charge when printing.
