My oldest has also attended several workshops. The Drawing Studio has truly become a home away from home. The director, staff, and all the instructors are fantastic. And, the best part . . . THE ART. My kids are creating amazing little masterpieces and actually selling some of them. Wow!! Side Note: I noticed a couple of bad reviews. I will not discount their experience as I am not them, but I find it hard to believe based on our three years of extensive workshops, camps, and interactions. I am giving 5 BIG STARS without hesitation and highly recommend The Drawing Studio for artists of all ages!

I had a fantastic experience taking Drawing Fundamentals 1 with Tracey Dunbar. This was my first…read moreart class experience since elementary school and I was a little anxious. Tracey made all of us feel like we belonged. There was a wide range of experience and artistic talent in our group, but by the end of the series we had all grown in our abilities and confidence. I was truly surprised by how much we learned in the six week series! It was really enjoyable and fulfilling.

It was so much fun and you truly feel like an artist lol. Instructor JJ was so much fun and loved her vibes! This is a perfect outing for many occasions such as birthday, outing with your friends or coworkers and even going solo ( I went by myself and I didn't feel uncomfortable at all) I tried painting this time but I would love to try hat burning next time! Absolutely loved every bit of this experience

It took the stress right out of trying to paint your pet perfectly. When you sign up you provide a photo of your pet for reference, you will get a pre-sketched canvas at the beginning of class, and you'll learn all about painting pop art from there. I spent over 3 hours painting my piece and it flew by listening to great music and having a fun time! I like that Tipsy Picassos hosts all kinds of paint and sip classes at some really cool spots around town like Borderlands, The Tuxon, Yoga Pod and so many more. I also appreciate how the class types are posted month by month on Instagram so we can easily sign up ahead of time.

Desert Metal Craft (DMC) and its people are simply amazing. I recently took a Blacksmithing 101 class here and was so impressed with the instructors. Equally impressive was the fact that I left class with a finished Mezzaluna (or herb chopper for the uninitiated). I have already signed up for Bladesmithing 100! Pro-Tip: If you are interested in a class sign up now. They book up quickly and you often have to enroll 3+ months in advance. It is worth the wait!

They have expanded and remodeled with twice the space for exhibitions and some workshops. In one of the rooms the are exhibiting the "Tucson Seven". World famous artist of the west.

Located in Tubac AZ which is 40 miles south of Tucson and 20 miles north of the Mexican border town of Nogales. Tubac truly is an artist village 1,200 permanent residents and growing.
