The Frontier Art Center gives families and individuals several ways to express their creative interests. Come in during Open Studios on Fridays from 1-5 PM to create with pottery, painting, and fiber arts. The base charge for Open Studio is $10 per person with some additional charges for certain materials.
We have a full-blown Fiber Arts Quarter. With spinning wheels, weaving looms, and more yarn than we can count. Need something special for your next knitting project? How about some beautiful roving to spin? Come to Open Studio and select some fiber to work with. Take a look at our great inventory. You can have some, and all we ask is that you tell us what fiber you are going to use, what you're going to do with it, and then give us a picture of your creation when you've completed your project.
You can sit and work in the Fiber Arts Quarter, too. Use a spinning wheel or one of the looms. Bring your crochet or knitting project. Bring your own spinning wheel, etc., if you like. Bring your spun yarn to block it. We will need to know what you're interested in and make sure we have one of our folks available to get you set up. Weaving and spinning classes will soon be organized for later this spring and fall.
We also have several types of clay for use, multiple pottery wheels, and a plethora of fabulous glazes. Come in during Open Studio and play with clay by hand building functional pieces or creating sculptures, or throwing pots on the wheel. You may need to reserve time on the wheel; we are quite busy in the Pottery Quarter. We charge for clay, but not for glaze for your work or the two kiln firings.
We not only have Open Studio time for painting, but hold painting workshops, some for families (snacks and cold drinks) and some for adults only (wine and dinner). During Open Studio, we charge a small fee for canvases but don't charge for paint or use of brushes.
Please contact us if you would like to be on the list for announcements about upcoming classes and workshops and special events. The best way is to write to katemarsh2236@gmail.com.
