Pump Project Art Complex is a small nonprofit arts organization based in East Austin that provides working studios and a gallery for artists to create, experiment, and exhibit. The facility includes a 1,000-square-foot gallery that also serves as a live model drawing space, along with more than two dozen private and shared studios housing over 30 artists and craftspeople. Housed in a bright yellow 1950s warehouse at 7th Street and Shady Lane, the group began in 2005 as Shady Tree Studios and has evolved into a broader creative space in the community.

As a 501(c)3 nonprofit, Pump Project operates as an arts space that supports collaboration and presentation of work by both emerging and established artists, with affordable studio options and gallery access. In 2019, it partnered with Almost Real Things, LLC to explore a model that sustains private and shared studios, coworking space, and mixed-use community rooms while prioritizing affordable space in Austin.
