The mission states that the Studios supports local artists and arts education in the South Valley region of Silicon Valley by providing affordable access to creative spaces, art classes, art instructional opportunities, and cultural activities. Listed leadership includes Founder Emily McEwan-Upright, Studio Manager Johnathan Geronimo, Volunteer & Instructor Anika Mathewson, Instructor Rhyan Maldonado, and Board Members Federico Saldana, Jonathan Gonzalez, and Bonnie Waldman. The community work facts say the organization has organized over 20 free public art events, including the monthly Art Walk, Art Markets, and exhibitions, and established a Youth Mentorship program in 2022 with a grant from the Gilroy Foundation.
