We are traveling to your area in 2010!
Yes, that's right!  We are taking Random Arts
on the road throughout the Southeast
and Midwest in 2010

Calendar

The  retail shop of Random Arts
 in Saluda,NC is now closed, however
we have opened a studio/workshop nearby.
Our "assorted goods for creative mindfulness"
can be purchased during our workshops held
here at our studio in Saluda,
 various venues throughout the country or
online.

Check out our newly stocked eBay, ArtFire items
added weekly.


(contrary to the usual rumors, we are still in Saluda
and we have not moved to Chicago)
however....
Random Arts
  has experienced  a magical transformation...

 both in our physical space and our day to day activities.
 Although our home base is still in Saluda,our
 retail store front  no longer exists on Main St.
 In the mean time  we  have re-established ourselves
 in our newly, re-purposed  studio/workshop space right
down the street past the Green River BarBQ

From our new space we are offering "better than ever" workshops,
accommodating up to 18 students with inside and
outside work areas, private parking and an enclosed courtyard 
for "all seasons" projects.  This new addition to our space
 allows us greater latitude for "getting messy" in our work.

 As we go forward into 2010 with overwhelming enthusiasm,
we ask each and every one of you to continue to check
in with us and view our progress as we move forward with our new  adventures.

 YOU are the reason that Random Arts continues to exist
and continues to thrive despite  the unforeseen changes.

Don't forget to check our 2010 schedule of shows, events and workshops.

Remember this?
Our "Gallery" page
now features delightful photos & memories
 of  many of our classes,customer art,
 events and workshops
