What is Studio 345?
Founded in 2012 by the Arts & Science Council, Studio 345 was started to promote youth arts education. The program transitioned into the Arts+ family in 2020.
Through Studio 345, Arts+ carries out its mission to make high-quality arts education accessible to all Charlotteans.
Providing unique experiences for high school students in Charlotte-Mecklenburg schools, Studio 345 fosters a sense of belonging and interconnectedness and provides an avenue for students to build social capital. Taught and mentored by professional working artists who are part of the Charlotte artist community, students gain invaluable experiences enabling them to become creative risk-takers and craftspeople while growing emotionally, intellectually, and artistically.
A Proven Model
Inspired by Bill Strickland’s belief that environment shapes behavior, classes are held in contemporary studios and equipped with state-of-the-art technology and complemented with experiences in the community, workplace, and higher education. Since 1972, Manchester Bidwell, founded by Strickland, has attracted national attention for its youth development program.
