This Art Glass Studio Located In An Historic Church In Maine Will Teach You Tons Of New Skills

Located throughout the state are small towns and neighborhoods filled with artists who get their inspiration from the beautiful landscape and good vibes of Maine. These towns often have downtown areas with local galleries or gift shops selling locally-made goods. One town in Androscoggin County goes one step further offering a special spot in a converted brick church for those who want to learn new artistic skills!

During these uncertain times, please keep safety in mind and consider adding destinations to your bucket list to visit at a later date.
The Maine Art Glass Studio in Lisbon Falls is an unexpected spot located right in the center of town.
