★★★★★Adam GothTeachers, facility, and artwork by past and present students is amazing. Teachers absolutely friendly, talented, and welcome students with open arms. My son loves his time at Art Camp.
★★★Jadasiah ConyerI’ve only been to two classes through the spring class/summer painting with rosemary And pottery/ceramics class with Allen . The only thing is I wish there was pottery for beginners so we can get the hang of it , I have a disability where I learn things not as fast as others so I need someone that’s gunna be patient and work with me . I’m definitely teach able and it’d be nice if some of the other classmates weren’t getting frustrated with people and saying ignorant remarks to those who are just learning how to do something for the first time. Some things come naturally to me some things don’t I’m just trying to find where I fit in , what I’m good at what I’m not so great at and improve where I can . A lot of the time there were older people complaining about the noise levels coming from other classes . Other than that I feel like my teachers were very knowledgeable and funny and kind. I chose to do roses class first cus i enjoy painting and as far as pottery I wanted to venture out and try something new for the first time.
