We love our Shop One artists, craftsmen, writers, and designers! Many are graduates from RIT’s College of Art and Design; The School for American Crafts, School of Photographic Arts and Sciences, and the School of Design. Several of our artists were educated in the Kate Gleason College of Engineering and spent decades working in that field. Later, they turned away from the corporate world and pursued the arts. We have many creative published authors and poets who hail from The College of Liberal Arts. Some of our artists attended RIT at the downtown campus and are maintaining active studios today. Some of our artists are new graduates and have just started their own business.
We also have artists from the Greater Rochester area and Western, NY. All proud, hard-working folks who make a living by selling their work.
It may sound corny, but we truly are a family, a family of creative and energetic people ready to share ideas and creations. Shop One² is the family room that brings us all together to make that happen.
