History

Established in 2014.

Originally established as Both Sides in 2012, Frazier Studios came into fruition as the community of learners attending classes and the demand for differentiated painting course grew so quickly after only 2 years in business. The Studio hosts painting classes for all levels on and off site for community members looking to engage in creativity. The studio employs full time professional artists to teach the classes and hosts a variety of art events showcasing local artwork at their gallery storefront, Meg Frazier Gallery.
