The last Tiny Print Exchange was a hit, so we're doing it again!

In this workshop, you will learn about all the steps of carving, inking, and pressing your own stamps! After making your stamps, you will create small prints with your stamp. At the end, not only will you get to take home your finished piece, but you will exchange prints with your classmates and get a piece of everyone’s work to take home with you!

Who says pumpkins have to be orange? Add a little personality to your fall decor and come make your own custom resin-coated pumpkin with MADE by MK! She’ll help you choose and mix your colors (glitter optional!). Then, you’ll be guided through using a tumbler machine and pouring your resin. After it dries, you’ll have your own beautiful creation you be proud of. Have fun with friends and make something new this weekend!

As a retired art professor, Gary Blackburn knows art. When he retired, he found a new medium to work with—wood turning. Now, he takes his decades of academic and artistic experience to create wood bowls, platters and plates that are truly works of art.

His work was popular on First Friday, but several pieces are still available. Come see them for yourself in person at the gallery Monday-Friday 11 am-4 pm this month.

Ten years ago, Colin Penndorf was a new graduate in Art and Interdisciplinary Studies from Middle Georgia State University. The artist group he had formed with his classmates was also graduating and taking on a new form apart from the university, the Ocmulgee Artist Guild. As he considered his options for a career, The 567 Center was looking for a new Fine Art Director. His experience was limited, but he had a passion for organizing artists which aligned with this job opening. To his surprise, The 567 Center decided to take a risk on a new graduate. What he didn't know was that The 567 Center would become his creative home base for countless opportunities for the next decade.

This is what creativity in Macon looks like!

The 567 brings people together through art, gives artists an outlet to share their work, and gives community members a safe place to create and learn something new.

To do this well, we need consistent support from people who believe in the power of the arts.

Monthly donors provide dependable funding that helps sustain classes and exhibits, improves organizational effectiveness, and lays the groundwork for future expansion.

Become a monthly donor and help ensure creativity remains visible, valued, and woven into everyday life in our city: https://www.the567center.org/give-monthly

Spend a cozy fall morning sipping coffee and painting with us at Sweet Eleanor’s! We’re popping up with paint and sip at this lovely little coffee shop and bakery. If you want to enjoy one of their freshly-baked seasonal pastries while you paint, too, we don’t blame you. Dee is a warm and encouraging instructor, so you’re sure to enjoy a relaxing experience, even if you’re a beginner painter. You’ll walk away with a lovely painting of a lantern in an autumn tree.

We kicked off National Arts & Humanities Month with pottery classes and a new exhibit of wood craft! The arts are worth celebrating all year long, but we love that there’s a month dedicated to it—and people to come make art and celebrate a new exhibit with us! We believe art is for everyone. There are so many different ways to enjoy art and different art forms to inspire you.
