Artist and the Machine presents STUDIO DAY LA 2026
Thursday, December 3, 2026 · Audrey Irmas Pavilion, Los Angeles
What is Studio Day?
For centuries, the artist's Studio is where we roll up our sleeves, create, and learn together. This year, we're bringing the spirit of the Studio to Artist and the Machine in response to our most frequently heard request.
Summit Day is where our ideas spark. The inaugural Artist and the Machine Studio Day is a second day after Summit Day, where we go deep and create, together. It's an invitation-only day of creative challenges, salon sessions, and masterclasses alongside expert peers, creatives, and technology partners.
Expect to walk away having learned something you can apply tomorrow, created something you can show to others, deepened your perspective on frontier issues, and bonded with peers who shape the future.
How the Day Works
Guests receive a custom itinerary. It includes one or two Studio sessions, a reserved seat at a private lunch, and access to the Creative Showcase and Happy Hour that close out the day. Each Studio session brings together creatives, technology partners, and expert facilitators around a specific topic of relevance today in AI & Creativity. You're free to network with all Studio Day attendees throughout the day.
