Take your inner artist for a walk and find yourself a new outlet for creative expression. Not everyone was blessed with the gift of talent in the arts, but the rest of us can still find productive means to evolve as humans through artistic expression. Take that – high school art nerds and drama geeks! Because we’re going to Everyman Town and we’re going to wake up the side of the brain that often lies dormant.
All it takes is a tour through some venues for self-expression. And some pot. Pot can be the uninhibited force that teases out our inner Picasso’s. Before you head out, stop at the premier Bothell pot shop: A Greener Today Bothell. Our recommendation before your creative outing is a sticky Kush bud that is equal parts Sativa and Indica for that all-purpose Shangri-La. Get an energetic kicker that will eventually surrender to the calming waves of a relaxing body high. Give up? Sour OG. Figures it’s so popular. Its parents are Sour Diesel and OG Kush. Without further ado or distraction, here are five places to enjoy a creative high in Bothell.
Glazed & Amazed | 514 Main Street in Edmonds
Glazed and Amazed features “Paint Your Own Pottery” where you pick your piece of naked pottery or glass, design it with stencils, silk screens, or stamps and leave it with the fine folk standing by to fire it up in their kilns, then you make a trip back to pick up the finished product. Bonus: you can sign up for Canvas Painting classes two nights a month.
Paint Away Ceramics & Glass Fusing Studio | Redmond Town Center, 7345 164th Ave. NE, Ste l-130
After consuming primo Bothell marijuana, create your own objets d’art and learn new artsy-crafty techniques using silk screening, photo transfers and special glazes. You may just end up with something special: make jewelry, decorative plates, wall hangings, sun catchers, ornaments, clocks and anything you can think of with your imagination. Tip: glass fusing is supposed to be the bomb!
Dahl Arts Ceramic and Pottery Studio | 7712 NE 170th Street in Kenmore
People go to Dahl Arts Studio because it is the place “where passion meets clay and clay inspires community.” Come one, come all—students of all skill levels are encouraged to participate in intimate one-on-one-instructor-kind-of-classes. And speaking of workshops and classes, some are quite special, like the upcoming Pottery Wheel, available for one time only where you can create by touch as you work the clay on the magical pottery wheel.
Music & Arts Bothell | 10120 Main Street in Bothell
Ever since their doors opened in 1952, Music & Arts has supported the budding musician in multiple ways.
