The workshops and national art instructors whom we invite to teach at Ephemera Paducah are selected very intentionally. It is our desire to connect creative people to one another and to the media they may wish to explore. While our studio space can comfortably hold up to 35 students, we also offer smaller classes for those seeking an intimate creative setting. The studio can also be used to host Girls' Night Out events and crafting parties for guests and their friends. We like to pamper you while you are here. Chocolate is a needed Art Supply so snacks are provided! For day-long classes, we pick up to order lunch from one of our fantastic local restaurants. As one of our guests noted in a review, "No creepy fast food dead fries! Just scrumptious collections of food for your crafty soul!" In addition to the studio and workshop space, Ephemera Paducah is also home to a retail shop filled with a variety of art supplies, including such brands as StencilGirl, Dina Wakley's paints & mediums, Ken Oliver's Colorburst and so much more. Our studio and workshop space is located in Paducah, Kentucky's Lowertown Arts District. We are halfway between Nashville and St. Louis on I-24 and within a day's drive of most southeastern cities.
