The Studio Fall Opening


Last weekend started the Fall Season at The Studio and I couldn't be more excited to see how much we grow. We are almost at the anniversary of The Studio dream. Well, I guess not the dream but the drive to make the dream a reality! I opened for the first time at the end of October 2014, Summer Fest of 2014 is what gave me the push I needed to sell my art in a shop setting. And once again, Summer Fest was successful this year and I think we will be seeing many more faces come through the doors!





 


To recap for those of you new to The Studio. 
We are a seasonal shop located in York, South Carolina on the Flying King Ranch. Nestled back behind the iconic white farm house we fill our walls with regional artists, including artists from Georgia, North Carolina, and South Carolina. (If you are an artist and want to be featured in The Studio, please feel free to email me with examples of your work! langdon.gracie@gmail.com)  As a seasonal shop we are only open at select times of the year. The holiday season (Nov/Dec), Spring (May), Fall (August/Sept) with these openings we change out our inventory to keep things fresh and ready for you to find that perfect gift.

The Studio @ FKR : Call To Artists


Hello everyone!
The Studio at Flying King Ranch in York, SC is back and ready to introduce many new artists to the community! If you aren't familiar with The Studio yet please be sure to click on over and get all the details and lots of amazing pictures HERE. And those of you that just want a quick overview, here it is :)

The Studio was opened at the end of October 2014. It is located on the stunning Flying King Ranch in York, SC. Flying King Ranch is a land mark in York and the owners have decided to invite the community to enjoy the ranch up close. Part of this process was drawing the community in and what better way to do that than a boutique dedicated to artists from the community!  For the months of November and December The Studio was open 3 days a week and had 2 weekend events where everyone enjoyed some unique work and local refreshments. The goal of The Studio is to encourage local. Whether it is the food, paintings, pottery, jewelry or other handmade goods every item in the shop is created within a 4 hour radius of York, SC.

The reaction to The Studio was amazing and so we have decided to keep the momentum up with seasonal openings. By not being open everyday we are able to curate a beautiful selection of numerous different types of goods that you can't find any place else. We will be reopening for April and May with limited hours and multiple weekend events. More information on hours and events will be released closer to April.


If you are an artist or know an artist from SC, NC or GA we need you!
As stated above The Studio is a place where local artists can gain visibility and sales from the comminity. We want to have a wide range to reach all walks of life, so if your a potter, jewelry maker, knitter, painter, furniture builder, WHATEVER we want to hear from you!!

Please email at least 4 images of your work along with an inventory list and pricing of what you would be interested in placing in The Studio to langdon.gracie@gmail.com
We will be going through all submissions and choose pieces that we feel will work well together and create a wonderful array of artwork for the community. You should hear back from us within a week of your submission.

We are looking forward to seeing all of the talent we have surrounding the York community!
