History
Established in 2015.
Studio 163 is the brainchild of artists Jamie MacRae and Diliana Popova. Both Diliana and Jamie have a passion for art and inclusivity and believe that art is for everyone. Studio 163 was launched in 2015 to provide people with an opportunity to experience art without committing to a long term course. When they are not running workshops, Diliana and Jamie are painting away!
