We’re open every First Friday 6-9pm!
The FAB Studios are located in the historic Fine Arts Building at 314 E Holly, Bellingham WA. (Between the Co-Op and YMCA.) Our front entry is shared with Wally’s Barber Shop and Wise Awakenings.
All of the unique studios are spread throughout our funky mixed use building. When you come visit us on a First Friday we have arrow up to help direct you to whoever is open that night.
