Announcement

The time has arrived to reveal the next project!

So the next project was a little further on than I let on. Only a select few knew of this project and what stage it was at.

The next model from Arty Duck Studio is........

The Nicholson Institute. The home of Leek town library.

I'm only modeling the tower part of the building due to size of the entire building and printing limitations. I have modeled it with it's original round steps from when it was built.

I'm at the prototype phase with this project. please keep checking back for updates.

Arty Duck Studio Workshops

To the Arty Duck workshop community,

Not the post I wanted to do,

It's with a heavy heart that I share Arty Duck Workshops & Studio Space will be closing at the end of June 2025. It’s been an incredible ride, with moments of joy, excitement, seemingly insurmountable odds, and invaluable learning.

While this chapter ends, the bonds and memories we've created endure. I’d love it if you could share your favorite moments and stories.

Arty Duck will carry on, on social media platforms and I plan to look at other avenues in the near furture.

Once again thank you each and everyone of you who attended Arty Duck Studio Workshops
