More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step through a narrow Nolita doorway and the street noise thins into the steady hiss of a studio: fans, laughter, the soft clink of tools. Light from tall windows pools on worktables where pigments float in sheets of clear resin. Under artist Clay Brown's guidance you mask up, mix measured ratios, and watch colors spread like miniature city maps.

History
Nolita and SoHo transformed from industrial blocks to artist enclaves in the 1960s–80s, making studio practice a neighborhood tradition.
Conservation
Resin is chemically active; reputable studios use proper ventilation, PPE, and waste protocols—ask about disposal and low-VOC options to minimize impact.

Arrive early
Get there 10–15 minutes before start time to settle in and choose your project—late arrivals can disrupt the class flow.
Wear disposable or old clothes
Resin can permanently stain; studio aprons are provided but dress for spills.
Mind ventilation and masks
Mixing resin produces fumes; follow studio mask rules and speak up if you feel unwell.

Pieces cure overnight at the studio; arrange pickup or shipping ahead to avoid delays.
Old clothes or protective layer
Resin can stain, so wear clothing you won't mind damaging.
Closed-toe shoes
Protects feet from spills and dropped tools in a busy studio setting.
Phone or camera
Capture stages of your piece for reference and sharing; avoid flash during hands-on instruction.
Photo reference or sketch
Bringing a reference helps with composition if you want a deliberate design.
