PARALLEL PLAYGROUND
isn't just another coworking space,

it's a creative cohort headed towards their highest expression.

 DESIGNED FOR THOSE WHO REFUSE TO SETTLE

STUDIO SPACE
+TOOLS

Every cohort member gets access to their own dedicated workspace for creative expression. Our communal tools range from photo studio, merch lab, rug tufting gun + frames, silkscreens, sewing machine, airbrush machine... and much more to even list.

AN ACCOUNTABLE COMMUNITY

We're curating a collective that gets shit done in order to reach our goals. Our cohort is modeled after the 12 week Artist Way path, ensuring creative expansion that culminates into a group art show at the end of the year.

ART + WELLNESS PROGRAMMING

Imagine group yoga in the morning before hitting your studio space for focus time. Then ending your week with a quilt making or mural painting workshop. You'll get access to every workshop that Flow State Collective hosts.

QUIT 
PLAYING
IT SAFE

If you're a designer or artist stuck in the monotony of working from home, feeling disconnected, and not really fulfilling your creative potential, it's time to break free. Your creativity deserves more than a siloed desk and dwindling inspiration. Welcome to PARALLEL PLAYGROUND — the place where the bold, the daring, and the relentless come to disrupt the ordinary and create something extraordinary.

Is this space right for me, no matter where I am in my creative journey?
Hell yes. Whether you’re just starting out or you’ve been in the game for years, if you’ve got the drive, you’ve got a place here. Parallel Playground is about growth, risk-taking, and pushing past limits—no matter where you’re starting from.
What can I expect from the workshops and events?
Expect the unexpected. Our events cut through the noise and get straight to the good stuff—hands-on workshops, gritty talks with industry icons, and experiences designed to light a fire under your creative ambitions.
Can I really access the studios anytime?
24/7, baby. When inspiration strikes at 2 AM, you’ll have the keys to unlock your creative genius.
How often do cohorts run?
Four times a year, each one a 4-month creative sprint. We keep it tight, focused, and immersive, so you can dive deep without distractions.
What happens after the cohort?
Many of our members find that one cohort isn’t enough—this is a place that keeps calling you back. Afterwards you can stay and just pay for your monthly studio space.
