Studio 12 is an inspiring place to dream and create. Walk in any time to paint pottery, create mosaics or fuse glass. Sign up for their pottery wheels, watercolor, macrame and wire wrapping classes. New this year is a Candle Bar, where you can build your own all-natural soy wax candles, and a Studio Essentials table for designing aromatherapy jewelry. The gallery is filled with local artworks for sale, including handmade pottery, photography, painting, glass fusion and jewelry. At Swept Away Cafe, the onsite coffee shop, enjoy a latte, a smoothie, acai bowl or kombucha on tap. A bonus at this establishment is that it's an outpost of Carolina Cupcakery. Owner Dawn Eskins is not only an accomplished local artist, but also an expert baker known for her appearances on Cupcake Wars.
