Barking Cat Studio Expands Arts & Craft Class Offerings

"We listen to the parents and what they need," says Maria Petulla, Barking Cat Studio's marketing manager. "We found most people wanted to have birthday parties here. When we looked at our space, a one-room studio, we decided to renovate the interior to give people more elbow room." In addition to re-evaluating the space to meet more people's needs, the ladies at Barking Cat Studio re-launched the business to "spread their wings" in other ways.

Some of those wing-spreading additions include a growing staff, a toddler program (working with kids as young as 18 months), and an upcoming mini art camp where kids can get creative for hours at a time.

Barking Cat Studio is located at 65 Bond Street in Boerum Hill. For more information, call 718-855-8050 or visit barkingcatstudio.net.
