Lisa is very kind and generous, giving plenty of guidance and ideas, but allowing individuals to maintain their own creative design. She offers a variety of classes from fused glass to mosaic art in her centrally located, well-equipped studio. I'm looking forward to more classes

Our evening with Lisa and her daughter Violet was so much fun!! My husband and I had the…read moreopportunity to create some stained glass air plant terrariums with Lisa's guidance, while my Mother-in-Law made a fused glass bowl. We learned how to cut pieces of glass and add copper tape that we would then solder together into these amazing and functional art pieces. MIL was working on composing her own design using different layers of colored glass that would later be fired and shaped. I'm so impressed with the outcome and how cool her new studio space was. She had all the materials provided to us and made sure we were each getting enough of her time, since she was dividing her attention between three people! Lisa was really cool and made us feel like we were old friends. We enjoyed her company and were grateful she could lend her artistic eye so that our pieces would be visually appealing. I'm so glad we tried this out and I plan on coming back again to try another project. The photos of our new terrariums don't do them justice. Lisa even provided the air plants! Thank you, Lisa and Violet, for introducing us to glass arts and sharing your night with our family. Until next time!

I had been to a similar place in Durham, NC a year ago and thought it would be so great to see a place like that in Paso. ArtSocial has a great selection of ready to go projects. I chose to paint a small bowl (pics to come if it turns out). I love crafty things, but sometimes my execution isn't the best. Their prices are more than reasonable. The staff was super helpful at explaining the process. Also, shout out to Vinyl Records, Moe's Pizza and our Community Manager Alex for making the even special.

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.

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.

As an art lover, I think Studios on the Park is a MUST VISIT if you're ever in Paso Robles!…read more This is a large space in the downtown area, right in the main park. It is a brightly-lit, high ceiling building that has a collection of artwork (for sale!) from multiple local talents of various mediums. I went in to look, but walked out with 2 multi-media oil painting-newspaper pieces from an artist named Holly whom I even got to meet! It was incredible to get to chat with her about what inspired her to create this kind of work. Then at checkout, my eyeballs deceived me by wandering to some cool glass-blown plant stick decorations that were made from the last Disney glass blower. So, I, of course, *had* to buy a couple of those delightful beauties! Everyone I met there was friendly and welcoming; there is much to look at and much to do there; it is also a place that has many giftable items if you have a birthday or holiday coming up or need some walls to fill. If I had more time, I would have stayed and participated in the self-paced $10 watercolor painting project that was setup in the middle of the hall. Heck, I could be here all day!
