Create Arlington is a coworking space for members of the art community.

A variety of artists are already working from the space and say the benefits extend beyond just a new studio.

"This is a great opportunity for me to get out of the house and have not only the studio space but the opportunity to show my work in a local setting, where all my friends and fans can come see me, in one central location" said artist Keisha Smith.
