The Morean Arts Center is a free art gallery on Central Avenue with diverse exhibits of art, sculpture, and crafts from local artists. It is a great spot to browse and adore the art. The center offers many art classes and workshops for all types of art, with world-class instructors dedicated to helping artists get better. They also have art projects, classes, and camps for kids, which appear to be free but require sign-up.
A major highlight is the glass blowing demonstration by professional artists, which is super informative and fun to watch. The center has a gift shop where visitors can purchase many beautiful pieces made by the artists. The Morean also has separate locations for the Chihuly Collection, which has an amazing permanent display and an entry fee that includes the glass demo, as well as for Clay and Glass. It is a perfect place for creative expression and supporting local artists.
The Chihouly exhibit across the street has exceptional blown glass artwork. The glass blowing demonstration is very educational.

I just finished my first jewelry making class at Morean and MJ, our instructor, was amazing!

Cool little arts center with some interesting pieces and exhibits. It’s pretty small, so you can make your way through everything fairly quickly, but it’s definitely worth stopping in if you’re in the area.
