★★★★★Melissa DotyMs. Tey is a wonderful teacher. She's engaging and informative. My daughters art skills greatly improve with every class. It's the highlight of our week!
★★★★★Liz SpencerMy daughter most recently took the summer week creative mixed media class with Miss Lindsey and she LOVED it! Every day I was amazed at the original artwork she brought home and the knowledge of Historic Art Masters she has learned in the process too! Definitley worth every penny and more! We'll be coming back to Studio Ace again and again for more camps! thank you!
★★★★★Wendy HendersonMy granddaughter, Ellie, has been taking the Tuesday morning toddler art class with Miss Lindsay for several months now and she absolutely loves it! It coincides with toddler story time at the Mission Branch Library right afterwards and she looks forward to art class and story time every week. Miss Lindsay teaches right at their level with an art style/form each class complete with a featured artist and video story. The class is 30 minutes long - the perfect length for Ellie who is 2.5 years old. The class is small in a wonderfully colorful space with lots to inspire creativity. Miss Lindsay is enthusiastic and patient. Ellie loves her. This studio is such a gem with so much to offer!
★★★★★Валерия ХоттингерVery nice art studio for kids. Teachers are very polite, knowledgeable and making kids involve in process of discussion and helping out to express it on paper with various materials. I like that every single month is a different topic. Highly recommend!
★★★★★T MWhat a fun experience for our kiddos! It’s nice to have a place that teaches art and they are well organized. The kids and I passed by often going to the library and they have free coloring pages hanging outside in a creative way. So to get to take classes after a year of passing it by, well my only regret is not enrolling them earlier. Check it out! Last class (an hour long) hubby and I had a little early dinner together next to the art studio. There’s two teachers and a large window and kids completed fun art pieces I’ve not seen before. And I’ve been doing art for decades. So much fun!
