Eye Candy Art Studio is planning to open March 1 at 3127 Main Street in Downtown Duluth.
Ashley Towers is relocating Peace, Love & Pottery from Buford to the leased Duluth space and renaming the business. A grand opening for the new studio is scheduled March 22-23, she said.
Eye Candy Studio Art will offer art supplies, paint your own pottery, wine and painting classes for adults, and a summer camp for children, Towers said.
Towers is opening the studio in partnership with Bruno Taillefer, she said.
The Duluth Core Preservation District Review Board (CPD-C) on Tuesday (Feb. 18) approved Towers’ request to remove the black paint-spattered awnings and to paint the façade of the studio in Bunglehouse Blue. Towers also plans to paint the “scallops” on the front of the building in a lighter accent color to be selected from the palette allowed in the historic district.
Luv for Art, which was previously located in the space, and Peace, Love & Pottery merged to form Eye Candy Art Studio.

Luv for Art is proud to join force with Peace Love and Pottery, and excited to bring pottery painting to downtown Duluth in addition to everything Luv for Art is offering. The Merge of two businesses will now become Eye Candy Art Studios. Thank you for all your support for the past 18 months “
