Art Gym provides a way to workout your creative side and strengthen your mental health & wellness. It's fitness for the brain. The model includes classes, workshops and Personal Training Artists available to adult members and non-members. The customer base includes business professionals and anyone concerned with completing the circle of a healthy lifestyle. Products would include supplies, fine art, art consultation and branded apparel. The team currently includes 2 Personal Training Artists providing pop-ups with a location manager. In the future we will have licensed Art Therapists on staff, also providing a Personal Training Artist residency for new artists out of college. Art Gym will include creative stations set up to mirror a modern streamline gym, a General Store and Fine Art Gallery. By providing a safe place for self care, Art Gym will be heavily involved with the community of Rogers Park and all of Chicagoland Area. There is nothing like this out there and the Brain Fitness Industry is exactly what everyone needs right now. We are looking to rent or own a brick and mortar location large enough for personal space and comfort as we move on from the pandemic. We would like to increase our supply inventory and have funding for a unique buildout.
