Sgraffito Plates
Enjoy our house made watercolors with a pack of cotton paper and an ink pen to finish it off. We also have metallic watercolors for an additional fee.
Enjoy our house made oil pastels in an ever changing variety of colors.
Pick a piece of bisqued pottery, we have everything from plates to bowls to ash trays and whatever else we find fun. Glaze with your choice of colors and designs and leave with us for 1-2 weeks. You will get back a fully food safe piece.
Our resident artist/owner, Melinda, hand builds or wheel throws plates that she then layers with underglaze. This makes a fabulous scratch art surface. You will get a piece of scratch art paper to try out the technique. Then when you have a design you can pick a color of plate and carve to your heart's delight. It will be sealed and fired and ready for pickup in 1-2 weeks.
Pick from our stone, semi precious beads, glass, and metal findings to design a necklace, bracelet, or earrings.

About us
Hello! My name is Melinda Stender. I have been an art teacher here in Las Vegas for 16 years. I've always wanted to open an art studio because I feel like there are a lack of art spaces available in our valley. This cafe is a way for anyone to enjoy a little art time in their day. It's also a great option for a night out. Eventually we want to open member studios, a pottery studio, industrial arts studio, and a material recycling store. Your support will make a huge difference in realizing that dream. Thank you for coming in and adding a little art into the world. I think it is something we need more of.
