SSSpecial Projects
SSSpecial Projects is our platform for studio-born endeavors. At times, this means executing creative ideas that originate within the walls of SSS. Other times, it means supporting the creative pursuits of talent in our network.
SSSpecial Projects enables experimentation within the studio, as well as the opportunity for creative exchange with artists, non-profits, and cultural institutions.
