★★★★★Paula WaldenExcellent art community. We have now taken 4 homeschool art classes here. The artists are friendly and kind and my child has learned a lot. They are currently learning ceramics.
★★★★★marylisa altomariWonderful! Kirsten was a great leader, our project was fun to create and she was very good about our time- we, as a group weren't so good with our time time management, but she graciously kept us on track. Would definitely come back again for another experience.
★★★★★Kelly OuelletteWhat a fun, creative, safe space! I'm new to creating art and Rum River Art Center has made me feel so welcome! I've done 2 classes and will do a whole lot more.
★★★★★Mary Korczak SecorI took the Charcoal Portrait Sketching class with Susan Beck. It was amazing. I almost cried in frustration and I almost left the class early but I'm so glad I stayed to the end. I learned so much in so many ways. Thanks to a great teacher and a great setting for comradery and learning. Rum River Art Center is a great place to create.
★★★★★Jim DuRoseWe did the Elmcrest Park Art Fair again this year. It is always a great art fair for us. Very well organized and a great variety of artists selling. We are very pleased with the sales we always have there. Thanks again. Jim/ Jes Dad and Kiddo Pottery
