Community Arts began as a dream many years ago. We lived in Nashville, Tennessee, for most of our lives, and from the time my daughter was young, we made a tradition of visiting a friend’s paint-your-own-pottery studio. It became one of our favorite places—a space filled with color, laughter, and that peaceful kind of magic that happens when people slow down and create together. We made friends there, watched others express themselves through art, and built memories that still make us smile.

That experience planted a seed. Over the years, as life changed and we eventually made our home in Cleveland, the dream to recreate those memories had not faded. We fell in love with this community—its warmth, its creativity, its heart—and knew it was the perfect place to bring that dream to life.

Community Arts is our love letter to Cleveland: a welcoming space where creativity and connection meet. Whether you come to paint, relax, celebrate, or simply try something new, we hope you’ll feel the same joy that inspired us years ago.

Here, we invite you to make memories and create magic—one brushstroke at a time.
