I met Bette Prudden at her studio in order to look at some of her work. Bette is an energetic,…read moreengaging, older woman, who has been working as an artist and an art instructor for over 50 years. She works in a variety of materials, and there is a fair amount of work (30+ paintings) available to see here. There were no portraits displayed when I was there, despite the fact much of her work was, and still is, as a portraitist. Be advised that this is a working studio. It's not neat, and it's not laid out like a nice gallery. And it's in a very non-descript building on a neglected section of Mack Avenue. She paints here. And holds classes here. Work happens here. The day I was at the studio, there were a couple of her students there, and they had been pupils of Ms. Prudden for years. I didn't engage in anything other than small talk with them, as I was there to look at Ms. Prudden's work with an eye towards potentially purchasing a piece, so I can't comment on the instruction part of this business. I'm assuming that if it's been happening for decades, then they must be doing something right. I'd advise calling before you get in your car and drive over - Ms. Prudden maintains a pretty active schedule, and the hours she's at the studio vary.

They had a printing workshop, a portraiture activity with Cranbrook Academy of Art, there was pumpkin painting, a skate demo, & workshop, and food trucks. All of this was complementary with an Eventbrite registration! What a pleasant surprise! The ladies that checked us into the event were very cordial. They have free street parking.

I arranged for a workshop with my bestie for her birthday. Pewabic apparently has a history with my…read morefamily, as I'm sure it does many Michiganders and Detroiters alike, and I was quite excited initially. This experience exceeded my wildest imagination. Walking into the workshop room was a mini-tour in and of itself- sort of a behind-the-scenes which I delighted in. The workshop was small enough in attendance to have a cozy room and intimate instruction, and big enough to see an array of artistic expression. It was also so much fun to banter and be inspired by other attendees. The instructor was friendly, clear, helpful, and seemed to enjoy leading this workshop. I will say next go-around I'll not be so delicate with my glaze application. I also discovered some personal sensory issues with the tile texture and glaze removal tools. (*ick). Aside from these minor nuances, I cannot wait to return in the spring for new tile and color ways. $50/person was totally reasonable for the whole evening. Highly recommend and will do again.

Nate and I were in the area recently so we stopped in to this historic store/workshop…read more Unfortunately we weren't able to do a tour, but I would love to in the future (book online ahead of time). The upstairs gallery was closed when we were there, so we just browsed the shop, which is full of all sorts of beautiful ceramic items like tiles, vases, art, and more. I liked seeing all the different pieces but nothing really shouted out to me. The animal tiles were probably my favorite. I also liked the house number tiles. They also had other non-ceramic items for sale, like earrings, puzzles, calendars, cards, etc. It is a nice place to find gifts! They also do classes and workshops, which sound fun! This isn't a spot that I need to visit every time I'm in the area, but it was fun to finally check out.
