A Vintage “Tin Can Studio” Of Mobile Creativity

6153519054_9f756b07d5_b

Caroline Ballhorn and Jenny Lee Craig run their aptly named Tin Can Studio out of a gorgeous, vintage Streamline trailer that stretches 18 feet long. Over the years we’ve seem their “tin can” transformed into a Magnum PI tiki lounge, an art gallery (on several occasions), a terrarium workshop space, a community creativity hub, and a roving restaurant (however small). Their enthusiasm and imagination know no bounds. Accordingly, they are a super cool asset to this city, and we’re always looking forward to finding out what they’re doing next.
