John Bryan Community Pottery C : Brad Husk, studio operations manager, 937‑767‑9022; 100 Dayton St. E : jbcp.ys@gmail.com W: communitypottery.com John Br yan Community Potter y (JBCP) is a com- munity studio that offers an extensive array of classes, workshops and studio rentals. The potter y also features a gallery, exhibiting and selling the work of its members and other ceramic artists. For more than 45 years, the nonprofit studio has been pro- viding opportunities for learn- ing and working with clay to the Yellow Springs commu- nity and surrounding areas. The studio is well-equipped with a gas reduction kiln, a wood-fired kiln, raku kiln, electric kilns, 12 wheels, a slab roller, extruder and glaze room. Renters have 24-hour access to the studio. Until fur ther notice, due to the coronavirus, classes, workshops, and open studio are all canceled. Little Art Theatre C : 247 Xenia Ave.; 937‑767‑7671 E : littleart.director@gmail.com W: littleart.com The Little Art Theatre has provided film entertainment and enlightenment — and so much more — to Yellow Springs and the surround- ing Miami Valley for over 90 years. A donor suppor ted 501(c)(3) nonprofit facility, it made the leap into the digital age with a $625,000 top-to-bot- tom renovation completed in 2013, but remains very much a hometown, single screen experience that cannot be replicated at the multiplexes. The Little Art takes pride in its mix of independent and mainstream offerings, with commercial favorites not being prioritized over impor- tant, low-budget indie movies and documentaries. The Little Art is among the most rec- ognizable and beloved land- marks in Yellow Springs, and the iconic house lights, the classic marquee and the one- of-a-kind concession treats all represent an experience that is more personal than in large, for-profit venues.
