Learning and experiencing art is what we at Artsworth do. By providing unique workshops to our community members, whether they are children, teenagers, or adults, we are able to open the doors to creativity and show all who wish to learn about the beauty of crafting high quality work with your hands and heart. Workshops are held at 25 Pine Street and range from learning about how to manipulate molten glass to how to solder metal to how to sculpt out of clay or fiber. Our goal is to remain open to suggestions and ideas of how to meet the interests and needs of our community by providing a space for all teachers to share their craft with students of all ages. We hope that if you have a great idea that you wish to share with others, that you will come to Artsworth, share our space and share with us. Below you will find a list of current offerings: check back as our list is always changing! Teach a workshop!

    Artsworth is celebrating a weekend of creative activity in collaboration with the Heart of Ellsworth and Maine Craft Weekend. Local artists will gather at the warehouse to demonstrate and show their work. 

    Ken and Linda Perrin delight in creating a hub of fine arts activities while they demonstrate their glassblowing craft to the public. The Atlantic Art Glass team demonstrate traditional glassblowing  all day as they make glass pumpkins of all shapes, sizes and colors! The studio of Atlantic Art Glass will be turned into a "glass pumpkin patch" as the molten glass is pulled from the furnace, blown and hand formed on the end of a blowpipe. The glass pumpkin patch charms visitors of all ages.

    Aaron of Rusted Pulchritude will create a wooden spoon from local wood using traditional hand-tools! Aaron will be bringing his knowledge of woodcarving, examples of different tools, and an array of spoons, bowls, and sculptures. Come with your spoon carving questions.  Watch him turn a whole log into a spoon!  https://www.rustedpulchritude.com
