She is currently under the guidance of JanRobin Green, who is an instructor that every child should have. I only wished I had a teacher like her when I was young to inspire me and make the world of art come alive. I am thankful that we found her to nurture the creativity within my daughter that allows her to take steps outside her boundaries and to always "look forward" to her art classes. :)

Best. Place. EVER. If you are looking for a covid friendly,…read morefun, and interactive activity I HIGHLY recommend spending an afternoon at this studio. I have never felt more safe, or more welcomed to an establishment before, in a time where it is so important for people to be kind to each other. Not to mention the INSANE work done by the head instructor, I was so impressed! Ginger is one of the most friendly, loving, and hard working women I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. So kind, so smart, and so SO talented. Could not recommend more!

Via a mutual friend, we were invited to the grand opening event. TX Craft is a cool venture that…read moreoffers art and crafts classes for both the young and old. They also have a small boutique that offers unique Texas-themed sundries, including clothing. Last but not least there is a custom furniture maker affiliated with TCC. I viewed his brag book and he can design and build custom furniture at a very reasonable price.

But their selection of paint and pottery is awesome. I also like the way they allow you to get your own paint unlike some places that limit you to colors. They have really cute pieces to paint and seems like they have a lot of seasonal switch ups which is appreciated. We did a cute little butterbell and it turned out so good!

I'm a sucker for a cute little small business hole in wall. And this place nails that! Plus, I may…read morebe a little biased because my parents used to run a paint it yourself ceramic shop when I was growing up. So places like this are very nostalgic for me. It's very small on the inside, compared to other do-it-yourself ceramic shops that I've been to. But honestly, I found that quite quaint and cozy. I find that their ceramic pieces were pretty affordable compared to some of the other ceramic shops I've been to in Austin. They have their paints separated by brights and detailed versus more earthy tone colors. And unfortunately, they tell you that you shouldn't mix them because they won't come out looking good. So you have to figure out what you want your piece to look like before hand, bright with small details? Or more earthy tones? My husband went with the bright and details, while my friend and I decided to go for earthy tones. My husband painted a wall switch plate, I painted a feather bowl, and my friend painted a mug. They were all done and ready to be picked up about a week and a half later. And they came out great! I enjoyed myself, and my husband and I have already discussed coming back perhaps for a date day :)

From the moment I went in to check it out in person and let her select what project she wanted, I knew I had hit the jackpot. There's so much variety as to the projects they offer and the staff is so accommodating. The owner really takes pride on his business and made us feel right at home. The kids enjoyed the splatter art so much and the parents (myself included) are looking forward coming back to do our own. If you're looking for something different to do for a date night, girls night or birthday, look no more. You'll have lots of fun and end up with an art piece for your home.

We just tried this place today; my daughter made a resin tumbler. It was a fun experience and the…read moreowner was SUPER helpful and really passionate about the business. The experience lasted a little under an hour (but your time will vary). It was an art medium we had never tried before and it's fun to have this place in Pflugerville. The owner also sells paintings and jewelry from local artists, and other small items. It looks like he's offering a summer camp as well. The only negative thought I have is that you have to sign a waiver AFTER you pay (and there are no refunds, but you can reschedule). It would be nice to have the waiver beforehand to know exactly what you have to agree to in order to participate in the experience. The waiver was pretty standard (permission to use photos on social media, resin is sticky and can make a mess, etc), but I didn't like that I didn't know about the waiver and wasn't able to read it until we had paid. There is also not an OPT-OUT option for the permission to use photos, which is not okay with me, but since we had already paid, I was only going to object if pictures were taken. Luckily, there were no pics taken during our time, so it's a non issue, but it could be for some people. Overall, it's a great new art space!

When she turned 5, her only request for a present was that we found a place where she could take art classes "for real." I looked around for a place that did children's art classes, not just something that did projects, but that taught the fundamentals of art to kiddos. Luckily, I found Art+ Academy and it has been great! I have a very happy kiddo now since she has her real art classes. Here's the scoop: 1. Small class sizes. They monitor how many kids are in each class to make sure the student to teacher ratio is always low. The kid's all learn from each other, as well as get a lot of individual guidance to help their skills develop. 2. Classes for kids are separated into small age groups to keep the learn levels on the same playing field. The classes range from 4-5, 5-7, 7-9, and 9-12. It's nice that 12 year olds don't have to be with the 5 year olds. Peer groups help everyone learn better and faster. 3. They also do teen and adult classes, so really anyone and every can take classes if they are interested in them. 4. The teachers, at least the ones I have met, seem to really care about the students. They offer help and guidance, but still let each student do their own artistic styles. They really want each person to believe in their own artistic abilities. 5. The price seems very reasonable for the quality of the classes. If you or know someone who is interested in art classes, I highly recommend Art + Academy.
