The studio collectives:
Rotvoll Kunstnerkollektiv
Address: Arkitekt Ebbels veg 22
www.rotvollkunst.no
Rotvoll Kunstnerkollektiv (RKK) is an interdisciplinary working community for professional artists in Trondheim, with the main emphasis on visual art, music and performing arts. The working community consists of both personal studios and common spaces, such as 2 project rooms/gallery for visual arts, 2 sound/ensemble rooms, 2 larger screening/concert rooms and a media lab. Following great demand for studios, RKK has expanded its premises in its fifth year of operation, and now consists of two buildings from the old asylum, idyllically situated by the Trondheimsfjord.
79 artists currently work at RKK, and a large number of guest artists and musicians are involved in RKK's exhibition and concert series Rotvoll Kunstscene and in the annual summer festival Kunstfest Rotvoll. The vision is that RKK will be a cultural hub, where professional actors in visual art, music and performing arts can together create good working conditions, new collaborations and at the same time open up the house for art dissemination to a wide Trondheim audience.
Gregus Kunstnerverksteder
Adresse: Brøsetvegen 100
Gregus Kunstnerverksteder er et atelierfellesskap for 9 billedkunstnere og kunsthåndverkere.
I 1988 opprettet en gruppe kunstnere, hovedsakelig innenfor tekstilkunstfeltet, et atelierfellesskap i den gamle husmorskolen i Dronningens gate i samarbeid med Trondheim Kommune. I 1998 flyttet kunstnerne fra Midtbyen til den gamle margarinfabrikken i Gregus gate på Lademoen og tok navnet Gregus Kunstnerverksteder. Aterierfellesskapet er for tiden lokalisert i aktivitetsbygget til gamle Brøset sykehus i påvente av å kunne flytte inn i nyoppussete lokaler i Frostaveien 2c på Lademoen sommer 2026. De nye lokalene vil gi rom til flere kunstnere enn det i er i dag og et fellesverksted for tekstil.

In 1979, the art school became a part of the college system and starting from the year 1987, the school became a state-owned art academy. The academy was incorporated into NTNU in 1996.
Independent studios
A fair part of the artists in Trondheim and Trøndelag work in independent studios. These are studios that are not a part of a bigger collective, and you’ll find them for example in the artists home, an old warehouse or a custom made workshop. There are many intriguing studios around Trøndelag and this Saturday you’ll be able to discover both known and unknown spaces and figure out if there are any artist studios in your neighborhood.
