Minnetonka Center for the Arts in Wayzata runs a large summer arts camp (100+ camps) for ages 5–15, grouped by age (5–6, 7–9, 10–12, 13–15). Three-hour classes with half- and full-day options cover painting, drawing, sculpture, fiber arts, ceramics, stone carving, mosaic, and mixed media, taught by working artists in small groups (16 or fewer).

Powered by GoogleGreat studio spaces! Bright, natural lighting. Potters would be impressed with the Broad choices for glazing.
Love this place. Incredible clay studio, beautiful gallery, rug making, jewelry making, all level painting classes, glass, photography, sculpture and stone carving plus workshops on flower arranging and so much more!! There are also kids camps in the summer…Would be great for way more local financial support to upgrade some equipment, for building maintenance and to reinstall the beloved cafe since it went under from Covid.
The Multi-Generational classes are really fun. I did them when I was little with my dad and recently I did one with my mom. Its enjoyable at any age and they have a lot of classes to choose from. Sometimes the instructors are lack luster but I have never had a bad one! Very relaxed usually.
Nice building, but disappointed today that their art gallery displaying art for sale isn’t open until February 7; even though their website seems to suggest they always have artwork for sale. Gift shop wasn’t much and the two employees who worked there were somewhat grumpy, not pleasant, and seemed perturbed they had to answer my basic few questions, even though I was about the only member of the public in the facility. People who are not pleasant have no love of God. Where are artists without God ? I won’t be back.
My son attended a painting party. It was so much fun! Artist Carly first had the children sketch their lake scape on paper and then transfer it to watercolor paper. Many of the suns had sunglasses 😎 and sunsets! I enjoyed free WiFi during the party too. Thank you for a great time!
