Brief History of Geppetto Soft Sculpture, Inc.

Will Mills and Scott Molampy, founders of Geppetto Soft Sculpture, Inc., decided to bring their talents to the big city in 1984 after leaving Utica. They eventually found themselves planted in a drafty boarded-up storefront in an old tenement in “Alphabet City” (East 8th St. between Avenue's C and D in New York City). William being a fine artist, witnessed the beginnings of a very soon to explode East Village art scene. (it became a world class epicenter of it's own unique brand of art and culture). Geppetto began its first NYC studio here. Our next studio was in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn. After 16 years here, we moved to Sunset Park for 12 years. Now we have a shop in East Utica, NY. Talk about full circle! Now, Geppetto has been back home now for over 7 years. Don’t worry tristate clients—— we are still here for you. Scott delivers personally to the NYC area quite often.
