Twisted Fe Studios

"WHERE MOVEMENT AND FORM COME TOGETHER TO FORM THE UNIQUE"

The Practice Room

We have a large multi-purpose room at Twisted Fe Studios that we call the “Practice Room”. It has a stage, theater projector, PA system, and good ventilation. Our Flow Club practices here, 3 different bands use the space to practice, and we have a professionally certified firearms group that uses the Practice Room 2 times a month. You must sign up to become a Twisted Fe Player to rent time in our studio space.

T F S Clubs

There are several different clubs that have emerged during the early years at Twisted Fe Studios. In 2016 and 2017 our Table Tennis club met 2 times a week. Now it is on a break while the music bands are using the Practice Room to make their videos on the green screen set up. The Flow Club will resume in the Fall.

THE ONLINE STORE

We have an online shop that you can browse for finding that very “unusual” gift. We have sterling and plated silver pieces, art and crystals from Brazil, special clay pots from Mexico, and of coarse the very unique gifts of the different mediums in Art by our TFS Artists Guild. We go public 9-01-18

Get inspired

Our main goal at Twisted Fe Studios is to be the place where artists come to share workspace, tools, ideas, and especially their support of each other. Work is on display in our onsite gallery. Specializing in glass bead making, glass fusion, and lost wax casting we are able to provide bench space and / or classes to students wishing to advance their skills in these areas. We also have instructors and performers who love to exhibit and share their knowlege in the "Flow Arts". There are seminars and free flow nights that you can become involved with. And then there is The Twisted Fe Table Tennis Club. This is also open to the community at all levels of play and is an excellent way to burn some energy while socializing with local good friends.

NON PROFIT FUND RAISING

This year we are supporting ONE WORLD ACADEMY

“Our goal is to create a learning environment that offers a top notch education at a price that is affordable for the emerging Mozambican middle class”…. “We are committed to shaping our students into the next generation of Mozambican engineers, lawyers, doctors and business leaders as they are the ones who will define their country’s future”….

Shaun Bissett

Founder

Let me introduce our friend and Twisted Fe Player, Eric Cooper. He left Illinois in 2013 to volunteer his skills, taking a teaching position in Mozambique for the Peace Corps. When his service came to an end he decided that there was more to be done so he joined the staff in the One World Academy with the intent to bring education and community to the children he has become attached to. We are keeping in touch as we work to raise money for this very special school.

Twisted Fe Studios

The studio here at Twisted Fe has formed a philanthropic group which raises money each year for a specific non-profit organization. Our house band, Hungry Mountain, is led by a very talented singer / songwriter / guitar player who has agreed to help in our endeavors to raise money this year for the One World Academy in Mozambique. You can join our cause and make donations here or you can sponsor a child by contacting: http://www.oneworldacademymz.com/
