The Drawing Studio recently bought the former Circle K building at 2750 N. Tucson Blvd., adjacent to its current site, for $321,000.
“The generosity of our local community is so amazing. We are grateful for the investments our donors have made to the growth of The Drawing Studio now and over the last 30 years,” said Lacey, who served as the co-chair of the capital campaign. “To date, we have raised over $750,000 for this project.""I walked into a class about 20 years ago because I was interested in exploring something new to do and basically fell in love with The Drawing Studio," Lacey said.
Some students want to be professional artists, while others are just curious about their creative side. Decades-long legacyArtist Andrew Rush started The Drawing Studio in 1992 and the 91-year-old still makes regular appearances.
