Our interest is in all of the arts, from fine arts to graphic design and from rocknroll to theatre. We are always seeking individuals to teach as well as participate in workshops or lessons.
Music
We have an Open Mic every wednesday from 8:00pm until midnight with host Peter Wright. This venue is largely acoustic but varies from rock to poetry.
Some of our guests include:
Dave Pahanish, Dennis Cline, Ilyaimy, Common Thread, Garret Clark, Roger Sealy, Scott Stewart, Dave Thomas, Joe P, Joe T, Gregg Huston, Rob, Keren Lee, Jill Prescott, Stacy, Amanda, Don Dixon, Dave Olson, Nina Trimbath, Bill Schill
and many many more.
Movies
Ocassionally we will have a movie marathon or film fest. We have hosted The ABSU Films "Film Fest" which was an excellent collection of "horror" films by amateur film makers. We have hosted the "Three Stooges" film fest and soon will be our first "Monty Python" film fest. Watch for it.
Television
We have thought about broadcasting some shows and maybe a few workshops from the studio.
Books
Besides the wonderful collection of books on stock by 64 Crayons, we carry literature from local authors Fred Lapisardi, Phil Garrow, Scott Stewart, Jim Greenwood, Brandon Lawrence and Carla Anderton.
Heroes
Duane Galensky has been playing guitar since he was thirteen years old. That was back in 1969. Since then, he's diversified into rock, blues, country, fingerstyle, and bluegrass styles. He's also branched out into playing bluegrass-style mandolin.
Now, after a 25 year career as an engineer in New Jersey, Duane is back home and sharing his years of music experience at Jozart Studios. Duane teaches both acoustic and electric guitar as well as mandolin for all ages and levels from beginner to advanced.
Instead of a cookie-cutter approach used by some teachers, his method is to tailor lessons to the student. As a result, the distinct intellectual and physical aspects of learning an instrument can proceed at the pace of each individual. And, there's no need to purchase cookie-cutter lesson books. Students can take notes and record the sessions for later reference if they like.
Duane is still accepting students, so if you have an interest, you're welcome to set up an evaluation lesson for no charge and with no obligation. To contact Duane, call (724) 632-3218 or send an email to dgblues@hotmail.com.
Jozart Studios provides professional and amateur art services as well as a spacious gallery open to the community. With its 7,000 square feet of workspace, this fully functioning studio offers itself as a hub for all artists, a niche for the advertising world, and a gathering place for community events.

Jozart Studios is also the home of 64 Crayons.
Fred Lapisardi brought 64 Crayons to Jozart Studios in the summer of 2005. Fred produces the writing workshops, uses the stage for theatre performances and maintains the wonderful used bookstore here. Contact us at 724-938-9730 also check us out at www.jozartstudios.com
