Fenway Studios - View this location on map

A rare Boston example of the influence of the Arts and Crafts Movement on architectural design, this innovative structure has been in continuous use for artists' studios and residences since it was built in 1905. Designed by Parker & Thomas, the layout conformed to artists' standards for north light and working space. Painters and sculptors from Boston's art community, some of national influence, have been tenants here, including artists of the Boston School in the early years. In 1981, the building was sold to a resident artist's cooperative committed to maintaining Fenway Studios for visual artists.

Unlike many other artists' studios at the beginning of the 20th century, Fenway Studios was built to accommodate the modern professional artist, meeting the four requirements set forth by the artists themselves: north light, proper room layout, convenient location, and a sliding rent scale.
