The Art Drop is a snack vending machine that has been converted to dispense hand crafted art from local artisans. It is located exclusively at The Fire Playce Paint Your Own Pottery Studio.
Our mission is to showcase local artisans and their creations in a fun way. Each Artist will be hand selected to bring a wide variety of crafts for people to purchase. We are hopeful that The Art Drop will not only help the artists, but enlighten people who may not normally purchase local art. Remember the thrill of getting a mystery prize out of a gumball machine? This is even better!
When you make a purchase from The Art Drop, you are supporting a local artist and helping to get their art out into the world!
