Studio Tour

Most of my regular readers know that I teach the clay monkeys at the Middletown Art Center. I wanted to show you around our clay studio and also convince some of you locals that there is life outside the beltway and that yes indeed, the road runs both ways. We have one of the nicest studios in the Cincinnati/Dayton area. It is clean, well lit, and AIR CONDITIONED. There are 12 wheels including one that adjusts for folks with special needs. We also have a large work area with a separate glazing area that includes spray equipment. There are 3 electric and one really nice gas kiln. Day and evening clay classes are available. There is also a lovely Gallery space as well as drawing, painting, and jewelry studios.  As a final matter, Blogger has decided that I want my text underlined  today. I know where the button is but clicking it makes no difference. Anyone else have this pop up from time to time?

    Oh I thought this was just really important must read information :) what a great studio space! Community studios are such a great resource, if it wasn't for them, I may never have learned a thing about clay! Enjoyed the tour.

    Since i work in a community studio, I must comment. Yours is much larger than ours in Black Mountain, NC and looks lovely to work in. We have many of the same things, except a gas kiln. Our Art Center has our Gallery, which is only given to the Clay Studio's students to display once a year. I'm sure students will be drawn to your studio for great fun.

    Thanks all. Even with the home studio,I continue to take a class at Middletown. There are some very talented people there so it really helps with social and artistic support.

    Seeing your community studio brings back memories of when I finally decided to seriously get back into clay. There are so many advantages to working with a diverse group AND having access to equipment that you could never afford to buy.

    Hey Dennis, awesome pictures. I love all the space, especially compared to my tiny home studio.

    As for the underline, it seems that your text has become a link to the first image. Your theme or template seems to underline links automatically . I don't use blogger much so I don't know how it might have happened. Probably some HTML tags got crossed up...
