Located in heart of Carbondale's downtown core, The Launchpad provides much needed studio space for the performing arts as well as serves as a creative hub for artists and community members alike.
The Launchpad is a community 'Space for the Arts' and is a partnership between Dance Initiative and Carbondale Arts (formerly the Carbondale Council on Arts & Humanities or CCAH). Dance Initiative recognized a growing need for affordable and accessible space for movement-based artists and musicians to teach, create and rehearse. Carbondale Arts recognized the need to create increased economy and visibility for local artists by bringing its Gallery back to Carbondale's Main Street corridor, and to house Creative District operations in a central location. In the spirit of inclusivity and with a realistic goal of providing a more robust arts experience for creatives of all disciplines, Carbondale Arts & Dance Initiative joined forces to bring you The Launchpad.
The Launchpad features two professional grade performing arts studios available for public use, a spacious fine art gallery and promenade, and our "Artique": a curious little shop offering unique curated goods. Outside, stroll in the Betty Jane Schuss Memorial Gardens featuring edible and medicinal landscaping, small amphitheater, gathering spaces, community vegetable gardens and sculpture garden.
