Cotton Mill Studios
One of the district's oldest buildings, back after Helene with painters, a metalworker, and photographers, plus a vintage shop and a Cuban spot for lunch. Deep historic character if you like a design-minded browse.

Lexington Glassworks Locals’ pick
Watch glass get blown right in front of you, furnace roar and all. It's a working studio on the South Slope, and you can grab a beer and pull up a bench while they work.
