For nearly 20 years the  Artisan Resource Center in Marietta has welcomed thousands of people who come to visit the studios and galleries during Open House.

This is an annual opportunity for the public to wander through 43,000sq. ft. of the Art Center and visit professional artist's in their studios, watch demonstrations, visit furniture makers and purchase one-of-a-kind works directly from the artist.


"Although we routinely give tours to groups, including high schools  and universities , this gives others a chance to see an artist in their working environment and stop and ask questions" says owner  Rip Potter, "and they can purchase one-of-a-kind items made by the artists they meet."


  ~Free Improv and theatre classes will be offered each day at Blank Stage  Theatre Studio C-1.

~ An award winning  documentary produced about the center will run during the November ARC Open Studio at Blank Stage, Suite C-1, contact: Brent Brooks  blankstage24@yahoo.com 404- 217-6903
