What’s Atelier?
An atelier (pronounced uh•tel•lee•ay) is the private workshop or studio of a professional artist, where a principal master and a number of assistants, students, and apprentices can work together producing fine art or visual art released under the master's name or supervision.
In this instance, the Cool For A Living community is the master, our events and collective resources are our studio, and every element works in chorus to produce results equivalent to fine art in each professional medium.
