Color Me Mine050

A chain of art studios that stock clay pots, mugs, plates, and any number of figurines, along with glazes and brushes. There is a work area in which to create a masterpiece, and the studio will then fire the creations and have them ready for pick-up. The staff is enthusiastic and helpful, offering guidance when necessary. It is a great place to bring kids on a rainy day, or when a child wants to create a hand-made gift for someone special.

Classes: Most studios hold classes for children ages six and up. Each class includes topic-specific direct instruction, open discussion and observation, and a related painting activity. Classes vary by location; visit the website for details.

Parties: A variety of party packages are available, and they vary by location. Parties can be held in the studio itself, or taken to-go. The to-go package includes everything necessary to create a work of art at an outside location, and the finished creations are then brought back to the studio to be fired.
