Its a very relaxed atmosphere and no pressure to be perfect!! Try it-you will not be disappointed. A fan from Kentucky!

The Eau Gallie Arts District is a cool part of Melbourne, Florida to spend a bit of time…read more There are murals and cool shops. There are also cool restaurants and bars, as well. In my opinion, a townor city needs to have a neighborhood with a funky, eclectic soul like this particular neighborhood. If you find yourself in Melbourne, Florida, I would definitely recommend checking out the Eau Gallie Arts District.

Eau Gallie is a historic Florida settlement in what is now Melbourne. This area of Florida is known…read moreas the Space Coast. The first settlement in Eau Gallie was established in 1859 when John C. Houston received an 80-acre homestead on the north shore of the Eau Gallie River. In the late1800's the area had thriving pineapple plantations and land was selling for $1,000 an acre until the freeze of 1894-95 which killed off the pineapple crops. The Eau Gallie Arts District is known as EGAD. It is a Florida Main Street program created to bring revitalization to the historic downtown Eau Gallie area by adding murals to the buildings. In November 2017, 19 murals were added to the downtown creating an outdoor art museum. The murals are part of the Anti-Gravity Project aimed to "elevate outdoor spaces, generate positive community energy, and showcase the EGAD as the growing epicenter of innovation on the Space Coast." The historic district includes the Historic Rossetter House Museum and Gardens, the Eau Gallie Public Library, Pineapple Park and restaurants, galleries, and shops. FM Pizza and Joan's Perfect Pies are two businesses you don't want to miss. The Eau Gallie Arts District hosts various events throughout the year. One of the most popular is First Fridays when you can stroll down the historic Highland Avenue and visit the different shops, galleries, and bars that host events and exhibits. Other popular events throughout the year include Whiskey in the District, An Evening in Paris, and the Rocky Water Brew Fest. I love when art and history come together so this was a really fun place for me to explore. Unfortunately the downtown arts recently suffered a blow with the closing of the Foosaner Art Museum whose loss will be felt for years to come. In the future EGAD will see the former art museum into a 180-room hotel by Northboro Builders who purchased it, a parking garage built, and more retail businesses added to Highland Avenue. Hopefully as they focus on getting bigger they won't loss the old Florida charm which was what made this such a delightful place to visit in the first place.

Art More Place is so much more than an art studio. This is a place you can plan parties with…read morefriends, meet wonderful people, and create beautiful things for yourself or others! All this in a colorful environment safe zone. Don't worry about spilling paint or doing it differently-all is accepted here. Women will especially enjoy Sit & Stitch Salad the 2nd Monday of each month,. The sisterhood keeps growing as women help each other, share their work, and their dreams. As for the classes, there has never been a place in this area since I have lived here as far as I know. There are classes on jewelry, mosaics, soldering techniques, textiles (I made my own cloth), resin jewelry, and much more. Artistic instructors have come from as far as Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, and even Australia to teach at Art More Place. Fearless leader Sherri O wanted to create a place that offered artistic adventures as well as community and she has done a great job. She is open to ideas to meet the needs of art loving people seeking instruction. You can find Art More Place on Facebook as well as www.artmoreplace.com

We register ahead of time for an event during spring break…read more The artist who was painting was great! They gave the kids enough time to paint each step. The place is on the smaller side and was packed. I'm sure the kids being on break had it more slammed than normal. The entire place was nice and cleaned (very organized). It is definitely expensive and not something we would do again soon. Maybe a mom night out in the future. I deducted a star because honestly parking is a nightmare. I was not familiar with the area and there was street parking... random paying parking, there was no clear sign for the parking behind their building (an email said that there was parking behind there). This place would be soooo great if there was a real parking lot, maybe in the future in another location. I do recommend this as something fun to do.
