Purple Barn Studios is moving into a quaint two-story house in the south hills of Pittsburgh at 717 Millers Run Rd. It is the teaching/working studio of mixed media artist, Sydney Wellman. The gallery, studio/workshop, kitchen, and powder room are on the first floor; upstairs are three bedrooms and bath w/shower - perfect lodging for female students who need overnight accommodations. (Additional accommodations just 3 min. away). Instructors stay on-site in a private room.
The entire studio is air-conditioned and non-smoking.
General workshop structure:
Workshops generally occur on weekends
Time: 9am to 5pm (w/lunch break)
Material Fees: Additional fees are due on the first day of the workshop, payable directly to the instructor
Workshop Size: The studio area can seat 10 students, and each will have their own table. The number of students depends on the type of workshop and the instructor’s preferences.
Workshops are for adults only
