★★★★★KATIE HOANGWe had such a wonderful experience at this paint studio! The atmosphere was incredibly peaceful—exactly what we needed for a relaxing night out. It was the perfect setting to unwind, get creative, and enjoy great conversation with other couples. The instructor was friendly, patient, and gave really helpful tips that made the whole process feel easy and fun, even for beginners. We were all pleasantly surprised with how our paintings turned out! Overall, it was a great time from start to finish. Highly recommend!
★★★★★Rosie ZhangMy kids have tried both the art class and a week of summer camp here, and both experiences have been fantastic. Mr. Gao truly cares about his students, and it shows. He and the staff put together a rich variety of activities—coding, chess, Mandarin, crafts, clay art, building projects, and more—that kept the kids engaged and excited to learn. The summer camp was especially memorable. Each day was filled with creative and hands-on experiences, and the field trip was the highlight of the week! My kids came home happy, inspired, and eager to return. I highly recommend this program to any family looking for a well-rounded, caring, and enriching environment.
★★★★★Yingyan XiaI’ve been here as a student for almost 10 years now and I have learnt so much. From the different techniques and mediums that we used, every lesson is thoughtfully planned out. I can tell that the kids in all levels really enjoy learning, drawing, and most of all, having fun! I highly recommend this place, especially the summer camps!!
★★★★★MKMy younger sister recently attended the summer program at Mr. Gao's art studio. Prior to attending the program, she had a hard time finding hobbies that interested her, but after attending the summer camp for a few weeks, she became creative and passionate in art. Her interest in art encouraged her to broaden her horizon and she later picked up coding, and even taught me how to play chess (She has never played chess before attending this program). I highly reccomend this place!
★★★★★Tina DuanMy Son attended Mr Gao’s summer camp. It was fantastic! Mr Gao were incredibly dedicated and thoughtful in their planning. The highlight was the museum visit for art immersion and live sketching—what an amazing experience! The kids had fun while learning so much. Highly recommend to other parents!
