Welcome!
Betty Thuestad, owner, artisan, and educator, specializes in hand built pottery but also loves weaving, collage, and needlework. She has over 35 years experience teaching visual arts in public schools. When putting in for retirement, Betty knew she wasn't done teaching or investing in the community. The initial idea of a studio that could encourage a love of art, connect neighbors, and empower people of all ages to try something new was formed.
The Village Studio is a creative hub for Waterman and the surrounding communities where art classes are offered in a variety of mediums. Outside of our scheduled classes, we are happy to work with you to choose the perfect project for your private event. You can host a fun birthday party, bridal shower,
4-H event, or other occasion at the Studio. Come create with us!
