This new location at 114 N. Main Street in Fairport will serve as a vibrant hub for artistic expression, offering a variety of classes tailored for children, adults, and homeschoolers. In addition, it is a gallery space for local artists to showcase their work, providing a platform to share their talents with the community. The gallery will host regular local artist exhibits, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in the vibrant arts scene of the surrounding areas.
The new studio aims to create an inclusive and accessible environment where individuals of all ages and abilities can discover their artistic talents and participate in the arts with a focus on community engagement. Stony Point Art Studio will offer a variety of classes that accommodate various learning styles and abilities, reinforcing the belief that creativity knows no limits.
“The studio’s vision is that art can be accessible to all, and we are committed to breaking down barriers that prevent people from exploring their artistic side,” said Jeannine Pelusio of Stony Point Art Studio. “Our goal is to cultivate a welcoming environment where creativity flourishes, and everyone feels inspired to learn, create, and connect. While also offering a flexible space that is accessible and accommodating.”
Stony Point Art Studio is an Inclusion Partner with Rochester Accessible Adventures and a provider of NYPA and the Canal Corporation’s On the Canals programming.
