E98 Art Studio & Gallery 5819 Rome-Taberg Road, Rome, NY 13440

"In an unlikely location… small strip mall, easy to miss, next to Walmart keeps this place sort of a secret. I popped in for an open paint party at Christmas-time and loved the simplicity of the instruction and appreciated relaxed vibe. So I brought my 6-year old for a trial session at the beginning of January because of his interests in drawing and painting. That one hour turned into 2 hours and now he attends one of their weekly classes. Steve and Moria are amazing, personable and flexible in what they offer here. I believe they’ve created something special and unique in our town. They have a great environment for kids and adults to relax, create and explore with art."

"My son takes classes there every Saturday and he absolutely loves it. They let him choose what he wants to learn and then help him with techniques and details. They are just wonderful! If you have a child that is interested in art this is the place for you!"

"I was a student of Steve's at his NJ Art Studio for the past 3 years. Steve is an amazing instructor with crazy talent. He will push you to go the distance with your art. When I thought I was done he would give me all the tidbits to add to the piece that brought it to a whole new level. Through the 3 years I watched him teach and grow artists from all different age ranges. It's a laid back studio environment he has that opens the door to your creative potential. Moria runs the front end of the studio like a champ, she is so organized and makes the shop run smoothly, adding the extra care and love to the studio. It's a great supportive environment to learn with crazy talent to lead the way to your artistic journey."
