Open Your Art is a public mixed-media art studio in the Charlotte Street Arts Centre at 732 Charlotte Street, offering art programs to youth, adults, community organizations, and schools. The studio describes itself as "intergenerational, truly accessible, and inclusive," and that shows in how it runs: classes operate atelier style, with a mentoring artist-in-residence guiding the room while each person works at their own pace on their own projects. The range of media is unusually wide for one studio. Classes cover drawing, mixed media, sculpture, pottery, fiber arts, and graphic design, and the space is equipped with pottery wheels, cone 6 stoneware clay, spinning wheels, sewing machines, canvases and wooden boards, watercolours, pastels, alcohol inks, and supplies for felting and mono-printing. Programs run September through June, and the enrollment model is built for real life: you can register anytime, and flexible 8-session passes can be used whenever it suits your schedule, so missing a week does not mean losing your money. Beyond regular classes, the studio hosts youth art enrichment camps, drop-in nights such as paint-your-own-pottery sessions with pre-made pieces, and private events that can be booked for groups. It sits inside one of downtown Fredericton's arts hubs, so parking and other community programming are close at hand. Tip: if you want to try it without committing to a full program, watch their store page for drop-in pottery nights, and note that the 8-session passes let you start and stop on your own schedule through the year.
