Subsidized Rehearsal Space Program

AMOC’s Subsidized Rehearsal Space Program aims to reduce barriers to accessing high-quality rehearsal space for independent artists and arts groups in DFW. AMOC defines rehearsal as a concentrated time for artistic process and practice. This program does not support rentals for classes, workshops, performances, commercial film/photo shoots, or any public facing events. If you would like to use our space for any of these activities, we are happy to discuss rental options and rates!

This program is core to our mission. Since opening, AMOC has provided affordable rehearsal space to artists and arts groups of all disciplines. 

Accessing this rate is simple. Fill out a quick application online, and we will follow up with you.
