The Beginning of Something New
Moxie Works Studio is a nonprofit arts community centered on creativity, belonging, and collaboration, especially for artists with disabilities.
We believe that everyone deserves a space where they can create freely, connect with others, and feel truly seen and valued. Our work is rooted in the idea that art can bring people together in meaningful ways, opening the door to expression, confidence, and community.

First Bloom Collection
Moxie Works earliest work, each piece is a one-of-a-kind mixed media artwork made from wood, ceramic, layered textures, and hand-finished details. Only 40 were created as part of Moxie Works Studio’s Gifts of Art exhibit at Michigan Medicine.
Every bloom is unique—celebrating experimentation, creativity, and the joy of making by hand.
Your purchase directly supports the founding work of Moxie Works Studio as we build an inclusive, artist-centered studio where artists with disabilities can create, develop their practices, and thrive.
Each bloom helps grow what comes next.
Current Project
From Story to Table, A Community Exhibit
Preparations for A Seat at the Table are currently underway! We’ve hosted over four months of community workshops, where participants are sharng stories and transforming them into clay plates and hand-dyed textiles.
This work will come together in a final exhibit held the last two weeks of June in the Parking Lot of Chelsea State Bank. A Seat at the Table is an immersive table installation where each piece holds a story visitors can hear by scanning QR codes. But the project doesn’t end there. During this two-week residency, the space comes alive with CommuniTEA gatherings and daily opportunities for the community to connect and create! Learn more about Pitch Haus.
Featured Work
Moxie Works Studio is building a supported, inclusive art studio where artists with intellectual and developmental disabilities engage in meaningful creative work as part of a collaborative studio practice. Inspired by established models like Soaring Arts Studio, this work brings a proven, artist-centered approach into our community—expanding access, visibility, and creative leadership.
