Who started Blue Frog Arts and why?
Blue Frog Arts is an all inclusive Paint Your Own Pottery Studio located in beautiful Elberton Georgia across from lovely turn of the century antebellum homes and next door to the Elbert County Public Library.
We are an older brick home with candlesticks on the shudders. In the 17th and 18th centuries people would advertise their occupations by having the shapes cut into the shutters for everyone to see. We don't sell candles but you can make your own candle holders and much much more.
Blue Frog Arts is owned and operated by Anne Scott Harvard who received a Fine Arts degree from Mercer University in Macon Georgia. She has always loved art and has been working in the art field one way or another for the past 30 years. When an opportunity presented itself early in 2008 because of a slowdown at work. Several people suggested that she give art lessons to kids. Because of financial cutbacks, art classes in the lower grades in Elbert County were the first to go. With some research and a few more ideas she decided to take advantage of it and make a dream job come true.
Anne Scott also saw a need for Family oriented activities and general art just for fun and relaxation. She took a chance on having a business that's fun, where individuals can come and be creative all day, doing ceramics, painting, drawing, playing in the clay, beads, glass fusing and whatever else seemed like a good course people might enjoy. (Anne Scott is always on the lookout for more fun courses and really good teachers and yes, she gets to take all of the classes too).
Blue Frog has had a great reception in the community since we opened in June of 2008. People enjoy coming in and relaxing, making gifts with that personal touch for the family or just something for themselves. They come in with friends and relax or have a girls night out. Single fathers have something to do with the kids, when its their weekend. Ladies have a chance to get out of the house and enjoy the company of others for classes, having fun and learning at the same time. Kids get the chance to make their own presents for their parents and grand parents. We have one who is working her way through the family including cousins, aunts and uncles. Its really fun to see people having a good time and enjoying themselves. It's great that Blue Frog Arts is able to offer everyone who wants the same chance to have fun and relax with art.
