Welcome.
Let’s grow together.
Here at Gem Studio, we believe that art matters. Our aim is to help children and adult learners alike grow through creativity, exploration, and imagination. Our art classes allow individuals to experiment with different art mediums, learn about artists and creators through history, and practice different artistic techniques - all while bringing people together. We provide a space and a place to share artistic experiences that so we can grow together.
Come join us for classes, or drop by to say hi!
