We loved spending time here this afternoon! The artists we spoke with were so passionate about their craft, and how their process worked. It was a lucky find while traveling down 94! When you drive by, it doesnt look like you can go in there, but find the main entrance and voila! We will be back!
Super cool. Was able to attend an event here for school children and so great to see the excitement in the eyes of the students getting into doing the art and seeing all the cool art around them. Was awesome to see the variety of art studios and art mediums housed inside. Absolutely love driving by and seeing the different statues that come out periodically in front of the building and the gorgeous murals outside.
What a wonderful hidden gem! My impromptu stop found several artists who graciously welcomed me into their studios. Sweet Driver Chocolates is hidden upstairs - Some of the best chocolate I’ve ever eaten! The gallery holds a wide variety of pieces from sculpture to sketches and paintings to pottery. The day I stopped several artists were in. They welcomed me into their studio space, and shared their art. I will be watching the artisan forge website for their events when more studios will be open. The only complaint I could possibly have would be to caution you to watch the website for hours, as they vary greatly, but the afternoon I popped in was well worth it! Even if you find the building closed you can enjoy the sculptures and billboard sized paintings that bejewel the building.
Artisan Forge is a growing, up and coming group of businesses and artisans. Many new, innovative perspectives on varied products and services. Fresh, fun, exciting.
