A Dallas Historical Landmark, once zoned for townhomes, transformed into a 17,000 sq. ft. campus featuring Apprentice Creative Space, a theater, and 23 private offices for creatives, entrepreneurs, and nonprofits.

THE OAK CLIFF ASSEMBLY

Check out what’s coming up on campus:

The Oak Cliff Assembly is a vibrant creative campus! While we host campus-wide events like the Art Walk and Neighborhood Resource Pop-Up, our community partners—such as Apprentice Creative Space and Thoughts and Days—also curate their own unique programming. We enjoy collaborating to bring the campus together, but don’t forget to follow each entity to stay updated on all their exciting offerings!

We're excited to partner with the Child Poverty Action Lab from November through April to host a series of Neighborhood Resource Pop-Ups! These events will offer free local resources and provide opportunities to support local businesses and artists.

Apprentice Creative Space

Apprentice, a 501c3 nonprofit, empowers aspiring writers and artists in Dallas, Texas, by bridging the gap between emerging talent and established creatives.

Apprentice Creative Space, founded by Steven Monacelli and Kaitlin Siebert, offers affordable co-working memberships for creatives, free education programs to the public, and inclusive community events. They provide mentorship opportunities and resources to nurture creativity, foster growth, and cultivate a thriving literary and creative arts scene. Through collaboration, education, and support, they enrich lives, ignite passion for storytelling, and champion the voices of tomorrow's creatives. All revenue from their co-working memberships and events goes toward supporting their educational and community programs.
