The Morro Bay Art Center has been a part of Morro Bay since it's inception seventy years ago…read more Located downtown on Main Street, one cannot miss the bright purple building which serves as a gallery of local member artist's creations, as well as offering art classes, demonstrations & workshops. The two-story building has changed over the years, with the addition of a classroom and kitchen, as well as a second floor gallery. MBAA is celebrating it's 70th Anniversary with MBAA SALON 2021 - Show & Sale which runs through July 12, 2021. The two story art center is presently showcasing a large number of member artist's approaches from Pop Art to Contemporary, in medias of acrylics, glass, bronze, mixed-media and much more. Their current hours are from noon until 4 pm, except Saturdays they have extended hours to 6 pm. This member supported volunteer organization is an asset to the Central Coast community.

This Art Center is calling for artists! I had noticed many lessons being given at the Art Center…read morein Morro Bay, which piqued my curiousity. Then the bird show started calling me. The New Times ran a feature showing some of the work on exhibit, so we drove out to the coast for the day and sauntered in. The gallery is refurbished since days of old, and features a nice exhibit space on the first floor, while a second large art gallery is somewhat hidden up a set of stairs. The bird drawings paintings, and prints were uniquely evocative of our central coast area and the works also drew upon the beautiful surrounding environment. Since January and February are primo "Birders" months, and Morro Bay now has an ongoing Birders Festival each year, this was a perfect match. We enjoyed the display and the ceramics and jewelry that the upstairs had. We will return to more shows in this gallery.

02.21.2024 - Spur of the moment piercing…read more I hate that I have to leave this horrible review, especially because Jeremiah was really nice and awesome. But I feel as though I have to do my due diligence to make sure that this doesn't happen again and to help others avoid the same situation that I'm in now. Before heading back home from Santa Barbara, I take a quick shower and suddenly, one of my forward helix piercing fell out. With its awkward position, I tried putting it back in, but there was no way I could. I needed professional help. I called multiple places within Santa Barbara's vicinity, but all tattoo and piercing shops open late. Since I'll be passing by Morro Bay and it's about 1.35hrs away, the timing seemed to be perfect. So I hit the road and waited to call around some of the shops in that area. The first place that popped up on Yelp was Central Coast Tattoo. Since it was a tattoo and piercing shop, without any hesitation, I called and let the shop know I was on my way. I've been wanting to complete a certain piercing look on my right ear, so I decided to get 2 piercings along with reattaching my forward helix piercing. It was definitely a spur of the moment decision. Jeremiah was super nice, easy going and he was patient as I was looking through the jewelry collections. I asked if the earrings are surgical steel or medical grade steel. Jeremiah confirmed they were. After choosing my earrings, I waited for him to set up his station. Everything was fine, I was excited, but felt at ease. He drew the dots on my ear, showed me a mirror and adjusted them as needed. I have to say, I've had 12+ piercings throughout my life and never have I had excruciating pain during piercings. But this time, it was the first. Both piercings were extremely painful when puncturing and it ended up bleeding too. But even then, I didn't think anything of it because sometimes, the condition of our body's can feel off than normal and the location of the ear could be more sensitive than usual. Since getting it pierced, my ears started to swell badly, got red and felt hot. By the next day, just getting a whiff of air touching my right ear, I felt stinging pain. I started my aftercare regimen religiously. Warm salt water soak, clean around the piercing with saline, warm compress, ice pack...it got so bad to the point that I couldn't sleep all night from the throbbing, stinging pain. I felt like I was going to come down with a fever. My lymph nodes started to get bumpy and painful. My head started hurting. The nerves connected to my right ear all started radiating pain. It got pretty bad by the 4th day. Even with my aftercare routine, it just got more angry and irritated. When I got up on 2/25/2024 morning, I rushed to the mirror to check if the swelling went down, but my heart dropped and I was in absolute distraught mode. One of the two piercings got eating by my skin! (OMG!!!!) The front part of the earring is nowhere to be seen. I gently touch the back to see if the post was still in my ear, and it barely was. I thought my skin popped the front part off so I started checking my bed, around my bed, under my pillow, but I couldn't find it... Great, my skin at ate the earring...I never experienced this in my life...I'm panicking while trying to stay calm...my husband tried to push the back post forward to check and he saw the front part deep within my ear...My husband started searching for the best, cleanest and reputable piercing shop in the city and he found Body Manipulations. There's no time to delay and to beat the crowd, we get ready to drive down to the shop as soon as they opened. Just one look, the piercer knew what needed to be done. She had to forcefully push the embedded earring out to clasp it. Both piercings needed to be removed and I must say, this was the most painful 45 seconds of my life! She noticed that the embedded one was pierced at an angle, creating tissue damage. This explained the sharp pain with blood when Jeremiah pierced me. Also, remember I mentioned that I confirmed whether the earrings were good quality? Well, it turned out that each piece, the front and the back post were made of very poor quality metal. This added to my ear getting really angry because my skin is very sensitive. At this point, I'm pretty pissed. I spent money to get my ears infected. My other healed piercings were also getting affected from my ears swelling up so much that I had to get a longer post for them. Spent unnecessary money. Within 4 days, my ears went from looking normal to looking like dumbo with red, angry, inflamed ears. Unfortunately, this establishment does not use good quality jewelry. Although most tattoo + piercing shops are managed by professionals who are trained and skilled at performing legit piercings, I don't believe Central Coat Tattoo meets that criteria.

My wife and I did it!!! We got our first tattoos and we couldn't be happier. Thank you first to…read moreour friend Mel from Taco Temple who referred us to Central Coast Tattoo. A big THANK YOU to Chyrs and Cynthia for helping us with our initial inquiry a week earlier and for making the tattoo process so memorable. Chrys is a true artist and a top notch tattoo artist for sure. She guided me and my wife through the process after reviewing the artwork that we wanted applied. Today, on two sessions my wife had a tattoo of three birds applied to her arm as a tribute to her and her two recently departed sisters. My artwork was a nod to my favorite pastime, golf. We occasionally would talk about getting a tattoo but today we talked the talk and walked the walk. I don't know if we will be inspired again to get another tattoo but if and when we do, we will stop in and see Chrys and Cynthia.
