ISO Bench Space / Communal Metals Studio — Richmond, VA Area

ISO Bench Space / Communal Metals Studio — Richmond, VA Area

Professional metalsmith seeking bench space in a communal or shared metals studio in Richmond or the surrounding area.

• Focus: traditional metalsmithing

• I own all of my own tools and equipment

• Looking for consistent weekday & weekend mornings through afternoon access

• Prefer a quiet, focused environment, but open to collaboration

I’m ideally looking to join an existing studio, sublet unused bench space, or connect with others interested in maintaining a shared metals workspace.

If you have space available — or know someone who might — please reach out.

DM preferred: @ka.barger

Email: ktlyn.barger@gmail.com

Welcome to Ganoksin and I wish you luck finding the spot that you are looking for. You might see if Hoover and Strong know of such a space in the Richmond area. I would love to find a similar spot near where I live. Since it is a small rural village, I haven’t been able to find one. Doing so would allow us to consider different types of housing options…Rob
