★★★★★Casey EmersonWe love Alma Bella!!
★★★★★Susan MintzTook the stained glass class. Dr. Graves and her mother were great instructors . Very patient and informative. Created a beautiful sun catcher in less than two hours. Great place for a girls night out or Saturday crafting. Will definitely be back for another class soon.
★★★★★James PaulyDr. Graves and staff are incredible with kids of all ages. We opted for a few weeks of themed summer camp this summer, and it's been awesome. Kids are encouraged to unleash their creativity when they're at Alma Bella, and we couldn't be happier. I love the no screen mentality. They're engaged, compassionate, and fun, all the while kids are learning various life skills, including problem solving. The art that comes home blows my mind. Highly recommend!
★★★★★M. ServiceRecently took a Glass Pinwheel class at Alma Bella Academy and LOVED it! Fabulous class!! I DEFINITELY want to take another class soon--maybe pottery, which I have always wanted to try!!! I love Debi Graves' way of talking to people and teaching the adults as well as the Summer Camp children (whom I had observed the previous week)!!
