The Best Place for DIY Arts and Crafts Classes in Mount Pleasant goes to Vanessa Steele and The Art Place Studio. Steele described her passion for her studio and her clientele. “I get to blend creativity, community and play. We’re a hands-on art studio where people of all ages can explore pottery painting, clay building and seasonal DIY projects in a welcoming, joy-filled environment,” she said. “My work centers on designing approachable, memorable art experiences, whether it’s a family painting together, a girls’ night out or a child discovering clay for the first time. For me, it’s not just about the finished piece, it’s about the moments created while making it.”
The studio’s clay and ceramic workshops have grown into true community traditions. Steele explained, “The heart of The Art Place Studio is connection – between families, friends and even strangers who discover they’re capable of more creativity than they ever imagined. My goal is always to keep building experiences that bring joy, spark imagination and make people feel welcome the moment they walk in.”
Steele offered a humble appreciation for winning a Best of Mount Pleasant award. “Awards like this aren’t a reflection of the studio – they’re a reflection of the people who walk through our doors. It tells me that what we’re building resonates with our community, that our classes make people feel inspired, confident and connected.”
