Color Me Mine Unveils New Studio in Franklin

Color Me Mine, a premier paint-your-own pottery franchise, is set to captivate the Nashville area with the opening of its latest studio in Franklin, Tennessee. The grand opening event, taking place on November 14th, promises a wealth of family-oriented activities and creative fun, making it a great spot for both locals and visitors alike.

Located at 3252 Aspen Grove Drive, Suite #11, this new studio invites everyone to partake in a unique Art-as-Entertainment experience that encourages artistic expression while fostering connections among friends and families.

Meet the Owners

The studio is owned by the dynamic husband-and-wife duo, Chris and Ana Dutton, both of whom bring valuable experience from their entrepreneurial backgrounds. Chris, who grew up in a family involved in photography, discovered his passion for entrepreneurship early on. By the age of 16, he started his own production company and eventually forged a successful career in marketing within the boat manufacturing sector.

Ana, the other half of the team, has family roots in the hospitality industry, having grown up around hotels, restaurants, and even an airline. Her journey led her to a prosperous career in corporate finance and accounting. Together, Chris and Ana blend their expertise in creativity, business, and hospitality to launch Color Me Mine Franklin.

“Ana and I wanted to create a space where families could bond, have fun, and express their creativity,” said Chris. “Franklin is a community that thrives on family values, and we’re excited to offer them a unique experience.”

Attendees can indulge in light refreshments and get an exclusive peek inside the studio.
