NOW AVAILABLE: See our calendar for specific "walk-in" times for ornament-painting and mosaics! (General "open studio"
hours will resume soon!)
Hey Jacksonville! "Open Studio" hours are back at Yes You Canvas!
We're still doing the same popular class schedule (so keep registering for them as always!), but we're open daily again for walk-in projects, including:
- Mosaics
- Paper Mache Sculptures
- Canvas Painting
"Open Studio" is
a great addition to our regular class schedule, including:
- Regular open hours on weekdays and most Sundays, including "Open Late" Mondays! (See below for details)
- Walk-in hours; no registration (remember, still register for our classes!)
- Choices for all ages; it's our first
activity pre-schoolers can do!
- Three
options: Paint your own vision on canvas; paint one of our awesome
paper-mache figurines; or create your own incredible mosaic!

Mosaics
NEW!
We've developed special techniques that allow you to create your entire mosaic in a single sitting—including
the grout!
We'll send you home with
easy instructions to buff and file your mosaic the next day so you can enjoy it forever! Or, if you like, you can come back
for free at any subsequent "Open Studio" session to enhance your finished piece with paint!
All mosaics are approximately 9 to 10 inches and cost $25,
including any enhancements you come back and do!
Paper mache!
Painting paper mache sculptures is like painting pottery, only they
don't break and you take
them with you when you leave!
We
have dozens of fun paper mache choices that include options for all ages:
- Animals
- Dinosaurs
- Ornaments
- Flower pots
- Unique statuary
Pricing ranges from $10 to $20, depending on the size of the item you choose. The
cost includes the paint and all the time you need to get it right!
Canvas!
If you've ever wanted to paint on canvas without taking one
of our classes, "Open Painting" is perfect for you!
In fact, when we offered "Open Painting" last fall,
we were happily surprised to find that canvas painting was the most popular choice!
We'll set you up with canvas and paint, and give you some tips related to the vision you have for your masterpiece.
The cost is $12 for the first hour
you spend painting, and $5 for each additional half hour (or fraction thereof). The price includes a 16"x20"
or 11"x14" canvas.
Remember, we’re still doing our regular classes! "Open Studio" is something “extra”—we’re
taking Yes You Canvas! to the next level,
working to make art as accessible we can!!
