Wedge Studios
What you need to know
Wedge Studios is a collection of working artist studios and galleries at 129 Roberts Street in Asheville's River Arts District. More than 30 professional artists work in the building, with paintings, sculpture and other original art to explore. The railroad side brings together Wedge Brewing, The Bull and Beggar and Records in the RAD. Upstairs, the Spotlight Gallery presents group exhibitions by artists in the building. Art markets, exhibition openings and RADFest bring visitors into the studios throughout the year.
Local's Tip
Before a weekend visit, check the individual artist or business you want to see: each keeps its own hours. For parking, look for the gravel lot between the lower level and the railroad tracks, or spaces along Roberts Street.
What the locals say
The place carries the legacy of sculptor, inventor and engineer John Payne. He gave artists room to live and work and helped build the community that continues here. Paint-covered worktables and finished pieces share the same rooms, so the art isn't separated from the work of making it.
