★★★★★Benedict Thoms-WarzechaA lot of great classes and fantastic people here. Highly recommend!
★★★Nahomi RomeroPlease please please update your phone number. I've been trying to call you at the number provided here and on your website which is the same number and it says your voicemail is full. That's my only complaint, I enjoy the classes and the instructors but it's stressful to not have a place where to call!
★Mary HendrixI signed up for the pottery class for a friend and I before the Covid 19 stay at home order. The class met one time and was then suspended due to the stay at home order. I have called the Art Center several times and left messages asking if the class will be rescheduled and if not, if I will be receiving a refund for the two enrollment fees I paid. I have yet to be notified when and if the Beginning Throwing class will be rescheduled or if I will be receiving a refund. Has anyone else had this experience with canceled classes?
★★★★★C CarterAmazing! They do so much for the community, and there are more people that want to use the art center than the art center has room for! I'm so happy to live in a city with such an awesome studio and great classes! It makes me never want to move!
★★★★★Rick WheelerPottery class is excellent. Staff very helpful. Plenty of parking in parking garage..you must pay to park but inexpensive.. coins or credit/debit card at established pay stations.
