Sorensen Art Studio sits at the very fringe of Fresno, at the very end of Van Ness, up against the…read morerailroad tracks. Once a large warehouse operation, the building has been cut up into various spaces for artists of all kinds. And just as the building sits on the fringe, some of the art is on the fringe, too. You can find traditional watercolors and mosaics. You can view fabric artists at work. You can see photography of all stripes. And meet the photographers and hear their stories of various photos. For a long while, Sorensens has been opened to the public only on Art Hop First Thursdays, and that's not too bad during the late spring, summer, early fall months, when it's still pretty light out there next to the railroad tracks, on roads that have no stoplights, among many other large, perhaps abandoned buildings. There is just a frisson of danger. But that has changed. Chris Sorensen has turned the building and grounds over to a new manager who is going to have the place open every week, Thursday through Saturday, daylight hours--10 to 3. Meet the artists, experience their workspace, see their art, and best of all, buy a piece of local artwork. Fresno has a great community of artists. Let's support them.

There must be over 50 artist "nooks" of all types. Paintings, sculptures, artists, recycled art, jewelry, digital art, and of course Chris' giant welded camel in the center of the gallery! This place is really fun and always has a great spread of snacks during ArtHop. Don't miss it!

I just have to say a huge thank you to Vardui Melik Shakhnazarian! Honestly, she is the BEST…read moreSpectrum specialist I've ever met. I came to her three different times, and every single time she was unbelievably patient, kind, and 100% professional. She literally knows everything - answers every single question with confidence and explains everything step by step so clearly. She helped me open a new account, walked me through the whole process, and even explained things like buying out my phone in detail so I wouldn't be confused. She really took her time to make sure I understood everything, and never once made me feel rushed. It's rare to meet someone who is not only great at their job but also genuinely cares about helping people. Vardui is that person. She's seriously outstanding - the top of the top - and I'm honestly shocked (in the best way) at how good she is at what she does. Spectrum is so lucky to have her!

Jason is truly dedicated to his craft i hope his journey takes him to better places. (5 stars for him) The ONLY bad experience (the reason for this review) was with a woman named KAREN but goes by REN. She was unnecessarily rude when my sister and I came to finish glazing our pieces during studio hours after coordinating with my instructor. She speaks to you in a very dismissive tone and makes you feel unwelcome, I understand we are not members however to treat potential members this way is unprofessional. Karen made the atmosphere so gross and unwelcoming that we chose to simply leave the studio without glazing our pieces because she seemed to have an issue with everything we did. I wont ever consider joining or recommend this studio to anyone simply because of this unfortunate interaction with Karen.

Truly the ultimate side quest here in Fresno. From Sonny Angels to cute imported stationary to…read morenostalgic candy. This place is a quiet browsing spot, you don't really have workers asking you often if you need help, which is great for my fellow introverted people. Parking is pretty crazy though, there's a tiny parking lot on the one way street before getting to the building but since there are other local businesses right next to the store the parking gets pretty full most of the time. Grab a coffee across the street and browse, you can easily blow through 2 hours just looking at everything they have to offer. Since a lot of the goods are imported I would personally say the average cost of something would be around $22, so if you are planning on splurging make sure to save a little bit (or else you'll get torn between choosing what to buy, like I have done before ) The environment is also very communal, having a trinket trading box outside of their storefront (not owned by Sour Milk but heavily appreciated) AND a Sonny Angel/ Smiski trading station, and also vending art created by local Fresno artists! On top of their every-day communal outlets they also are huge contributors for Tower Districts Art Hop and they host local vegan food trucks from time to time.
