Welcome to Three Barn Acres

Three Barn Acres, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to arts education and community connection. As a nonprofit, all income supports our programs, and donations are tax-deductible as allowed by law.

We exist to make creativity accessible — not a luxury, but a shared community resource.

Located just outside Brookings, South Dakota, on the grassland prairie, Three Barn Acres offers a welcoming studio space for artists, beginners, and curious creatives of all ages.

Whether you're joining a class, hosting a private event, or simply stopping by, you’ll find opportunities to create, connect, and grow. We offer hands-on classes for all skill levels, along with quality materials, tools, and thoughtful instruction.

More than just a studio, Three Barn Acres is a place to gather, learn, and celebrate creativity together.

Our Core Values

Creativity
Everyone is creative — sometimes we just need the space to explore it.

Community
We foster connection and collaboration through shared artistic experiences.

Growth
There is always room to learn, evolve, and try something new.

Three Barn Acres is about more than making art — it’s about building meaningful connections through joyful, hands-on experiences.
