The Goddard Art Studios, located at the corner of 1st & E Street SW, is an important teaching institution in south central Oklahoma. The studios provides hands-on, project based art instruction taught by professionally trained art instructors. Classes for both youth and adults are held quarterly throughout the year in the fall, winter, spring and summer. The Studio’s Summer Art Day Camp for children is also a very popular summertime activity. The Ardmore Art Guild and Monday Paint Group both meet regularly at the Art Studios where participants learn from each other as well as from professional workshops held throughout the year. Recently the lobby of the Art Studios was transformed into an additional gallery to exhibit and sell the artworks of regional artists.
