Makers on Broadway Silversmithing Studio
The Vision of the creators of The Lewistown Mob is to offer artistic opportunities to every level of artist. For the beginner artist we offer classes and opportunities to learn in an entry level environment. Through taking a silversmithing class our artists learn basic skills, safety, and studio policies, and automatically become a member of Makers on Broadway (MOB).
Once membership begins, intermediate artist can purchase either a One-day Pass, a Three-Day day pass, or a Monthly Membership pass to work in The Mob's fully equipped silver studio spaces during open hours. A Studio pass is good from opening to closing during our open studio hours. Need to take a lunch break? no worries, your sign-in counts for the entire day.

Zanny, the creative force behind MOB Gallery and Studios, resides in Lewistown, Montana, alongside her husband Shaun and their three children,
Izzy, Miles, and Finn. Bozeman, Montana, holds a special place in her heart as it's where she was raised and where she earned her Bachelor's degree in English Literature and Secondary Education at MSU.
After college, Zanny embarked on a journey around Montana until she and Shaun settled in Lewistown, the geographical center of the state. Together, they established Griffith Contracting, an excavating business, from their own backyard. With the construction business finding a new home outside their house, Zanny seized the opportunity to pursue her true artistic passions.
Her artistic journey led her to the realm of painting, where she beautifully rendered colorful and evocative landscapes, cityscapes, portraits, and figures in oils, watercolors, and gouache. Building on her creative exploration, Zanny delved into silversmithing, learning from the local legend, Carol Woolsey. Now, her silver studio complements her painting space, and she alternates between these two artistic disciplines with finesse.
Zanny's latest endeavor involves the establishment of the MOB Gallery and Studios. The vision is to create a multifaceted creative space, including an exclusive woodworking shop, a ceramic studio, and a silversmithing studio and a painting studio to serve as a haven for artistic expression.
