★★★★★Mike Aieta

Riverside Arts Center aka RAC is an Arts hub of the near Southwest Chicago suburb of Riverside, IL offering an unmatched blend of Art Gallery, Arts Education Programming , and a State of the Art Ceramics Workshop for Professional Artists and Students alike. Highly talented and visionary artists from all over Chicago exhibit here regularly. Highly recommend you visit the website, join their email list , attend openings, classes, artist talks , and fundraising events and join as a member to support the Arts.

★★★★★Laura Husar Garcia

A powerhouse place for artists of all ages and art-lovers from across the western suburbs and Chicagoland. Amazing contemporary arts community and exhibitions! Steps from the train line, which we really like.

★★★★★Sandoval Toims

I really love this place. It has a homey charm that can't be faked. All the teachers are amazing especially that Mr.Tee! Their website is frustrating at times. It's hard to find classes and sign up but worth it once you do. Need to advertise better.
