Iron Bridge Studio

We're excited to welcome visitors to Iron Bridge Studio during this year's Fresh Art Spring Tour.

Join us for a weekend of art, creativity, and community.

We're especially excited to welcome artist Nina Bisgaard, who will be creating one of her wonderful whimsical fairy houses during the event. Stop by to watch her process and see the magic take shape.

Whether you're a longtime visitor or are planning your first visit, we'd love to welcome you to the studio.

Iron Bridge Studio and Bramble & Burr will be permanently closing our Pembroke Avenue storefront following the Fresh Art Tour, the first weekend of June.

Iron Bridge Studio will continue at our farm and bluff location at Surly Owl Farm. While our downtown chapter is coming to an end, we're not ending our creative journey—we're simply pivoting and focusing our energy on new projects and opportunities on the bluff.

Throughout June, we'll be holding a moving and liquidation sale as we prepare to leave the space. There will be special pricing on books, pottery, gifts, botanicals, fixtures, displays, and many of the treasures that have filled our shop over the years. We may also host occasional pop-up sales as we make the transition.

We're deeply grateful to everyone who has supported us, taken classes, shopped with us, and shared in this creative community. We hope you'll stop by during the Fresh Art Tour and throughout June to help us celebrate this next step.

More details on sale dates and special offers coming soon.

Busy weekend at Iron Bridge Studio! Nina’s gnome class is a popular one! Everyone’s gnome is so creative and unique!

“Such a treat to welcome Laura Schara to Iron Bridge Studio today — co-host of Minnesota Bound and in Wabasha filming our amazing little community. Even with all she’s accomplished in the outdoor and media worlds, she was kind, grounded, and so easy to connect with. Grateful for the visit — and for people who are just as wonderful in person as they are on screen.”

A special thanks to my sister Kelly for helping our paths cross and braving the cold rain with her to check out my shop!

WINTER UPDATE:�
From January–April, the Bramble & Burr retail shop will pause regular walk-in hours, while I focus on family, another large studio project and restructuring the front of the shop. Please call me if you would like to make an appointment to pick up past class pottery or to schedule a private class!

Running a small business in a town this size requires intention. Staying open during months when foot traffic is minimal does not support the health of this particular business, and for me, sustainability—not optics—is what ensures that my little shop can continue to exist.

IRON BRIDGE ART AND CLAY REMAINS OPEN AND ACTIVE !
Artist memberships with 24/7 access
Classes, workshops, and private events

(PLEASE NOTE: unless there is a class or workshop in session, the front door will be locked — artist access continues as usual.)

TO MY WONDERFUL CUSTOMERS! THANK YOU! Your kindness, encouragement, and enthusiasm—especially from locals and returning visitors from around the area and the Twin Cities—mean more than you know. I’m continually humbled by your support.

See you this Spring!!
