★★★★★Akul GhormadeAmazing experience with the ceramics class on the weekends. Rebecca is a super helpful instructor, and the team there does a terrific job at taking care of the clay studio and its patrons.
★AnnNever been here before first time yesterday, I was walking by with my husband. they had a cute free Art Gallery where you trade Other small pieces of art. Which I always carry things I've made myself I Saw this cute little cat I wanted to trade, they had a lock on the little cabinet, so I went in. The place looked nice. I asked the lady up front and she grabbed the key and went outside so I could trade, she unlocked it and then told me that there are like 2 or 3 things off limits and I was kind of confused. I didn't understand why then they were in the case she asked me what was it that I wanted. I told her the cat. Then she tells me that one is off limits. I was confused, and I said that's disappointing. Then she was like, well, it's a way to attract people. And she also removed a car in there that had the lady's name on the back of it, she said this is her stuff, I felt kind of tricked, and I did not like that, it felt kind of scummy. To trick people, to make things with cute things inside that you're not even going to be able to trade anyway. It just felt dishonest. I decided not to trade after all. I didn't really see anything else. Also I just didn't want to, it didn't seem fair if they're going to trick people I don't like associating with that type. Of business, so I really don't know what else they do. Definitely disappointing though. I felt trick Make sure before you see something you like and go make something that they're actually going to let you trade for it instead of making something then finding out afterward, you couldn't take it anyway. That's definitely not fair.😔
★★★★★Jill StodolaToday was my first visit and I loved it! Great artist vendors and all nicely displayed. Apparently , they are open year round. Helpful people and good parking. The art had visible price stickers on it. I heard that they have great classes.
★★★★★John FrancisWe did the little makers day. The teachers are so helpful and nice. They were so patient with my 9 year old cousin who was very anxious to go and meet new people and try new styles of art. Everyone made her feel so welcome! By time we left she was BEGGING for a job because she had so much fun lol
