After this year's summer camps at 219 Middle Street, Bear Hands Art Factory will be moving to a new location. Although we love the downtown area, our changing economy demands a move to a more accessible, economical location.
We will still be serving the New Bern community, and we are very hopeful about the new changes in our business. I will be adding more classes during the school year for both home school students and after school students. I want to add classes for young students ages 4-6, and kids' painting party events. 
We will also be drastically improving our pottery studio. The first 20 Members (or "Charter Members") to commit to a year of membership will get exclusive benefits (we already have 17 charter members!). Regular memberships will also come with far more membership benefits than before.
Shelley will be working to improve and maintain the pottery studio, keeping members involved with classes, contests, inspiration, and opportunities. Snag one of the three remaining Charter Memberships to the studio, or find out more about the membership benefits: email us at info@bearhandsart.com.
I know many of you are wondering where we will be moving to. As of right now, no leases have been signed, so it's a little up in the air. But here's one sure way to find out. Subscribe to our weekly newsletter! You'll be the first to know about sales, classes, and our new location. We feature art events, local artists, student art and more. It's the best way to stay connected with New Bern's art community.
