The Studio
About Muddy's Studio
Our state of the art facility, founded by Kevin A. Myers, enables us to offer a unique, exciting and creative environment for the independent clay artist. Muddy’s Studio is a fully equipped, 5400 square foot studio that meets the needs of sculptors, hand builders, and artists who work on the wheel. Muddy’s Studio offers memberships, workshops, and sales, semi-private, private and shared studio space. Our Mission
The mission behind Muddy’s Studio is to encourage and support the artist in need of a place to work. Our goal is to provide a professional working and supportive environment for the artistic community. Muddy’s Studio was built with the ceramic artist in mind. We wanted to design a project space where artist have the opportunity to experiment and expand their ideas. A unique feature of the studio is that it was designed to be modular. Artists needing space for that special project may be accommodated. |
