The go-to hangout for Phoenix Creatives
The most Unique and Creative Spot In Phoenix
Brightside Studios is more than a cafe, more than an art studio, more than a music and event space, and more than a place for creative painting classes and wine and sip paint nights. We are all of these things combined, and so much more. Come in and see just how unique, fun, and creative one spot in Phoenix can be. Come and paint any time you want, grab some of the best creative food fares in the area or join us for our music nights with friends. Watch the video here to see so much more.
THE BEST CREATIVE FOOD FARE IN PHOENIX
While the Membership Studio encourages creativity and collaboration, the cafe is where we make the connections. We see our cafe as an energetic venue where the community can network and our members can take a
break from their work and enjoy a meal or drink — all under the same roof!
About The Owners
Dedicated to the Conservation of Traditional Art
“Our mission behind Brightside Studios is to create a dream space for Phoenix artists -specifically painters – where they can hang out, work, eat, drink good coffee and utilize a large studio space to express themselves. It’s important to the Kuenn family that we give back to the great city of Phoenix, a place we hold so dear to our hearts, and provide a safe space for locals to find themselves and be a part of a new, thriving and healthy community.”
-Brad & Vanessa Kuenn

What Our Customers Say
Word On The Street
To say Brightside Studios pampers your creative side is an understatement! They supply the tools, space, music and caffeine to help get me inspired and work on some of my best work yet!
Considering how much I spend on art supplies a year, Brightside is saving me A LOT already! Most of my needed art supplies are provided for with the membership and they have great coffee to keep me going! If I didn’t have to leave for mamma duty, I wouldn’t!
I love that they have supplies available outside of the studio, if I forgot brushes or just don’t want to lug all my supplies with me, it’s all so convenient. Even the storage options are immensely helpful when I don’t have a lot of space to store my larger pieces of work – or I am waiting for the oil paint to dry.
Of all the things Brightside provides, one of my favorites is watching the vast array of art other artists create in the studio. There’s no one way of creating or making art. Everyone can come in and very easily start making something they love. I can’t wait to see Brightside evolve and grow around the Phoenix art community.
Community is a big part of Brightside Studios. Each artist takes care of each other, they’re interested in other projects developing in the studio and love being a part of the positive atmosphere.
Brightside Studios was the answer to my small-space, live-alone, disorganized creative problem. Now, not only can I work on much larger canvases than I would in my home studio, but all their free art supplies are cleaned and organized for me each time I am ready to put my head down and get to work.
