I attended the Valentine's Wheel Throwing Couples Special back in February 2020. Who knew this…read morewould be one of the last fun events for me, prior to Covid and without the masks and physical distancing! Now, it's a much cherished memory! Bonnie, who is the Charming Owner, prepared a truly amazing evening for us. It was only 4 couples, so we got a lot of attention from Two Experienced Instructors. My husband and I did try working with the rolled-out clay before, but we wanted to try the wheel throwing and that was exactly what this evening was about! And it is true what everyone says: it is very very difficult, even though it looks simple at a first glance. With some much needed help, we were able to take a few cups and dishes home. The atmosphere was lovely. There was a table with delicious snacks (cheese plate and crackers, dips, and lovely sweets, including chocolate covered strawberries!) for us and complimentary wine and bubbles. That surely boosted my confidence, as neither me, nor my husband had any clue about the wheel throwing and centering :) The Instructors were very patient, if it wasn't for them, I wouldn't be able to do anything, as it turned out I was hopeless with the wheel. It was a fun, hands-on night in a relaxing atmosphere, with music and wine. No prior experience was needed. The clay is unlimited, but you will not leave with your piece in hand, as it needs some drying, curing and baking. We left our pieces for glazing (they had a choice of several colors) and baking. They were ready for pick after several days. The clay is wet and messy, so don't come dressed up, it's a more casual feel. I am really interested in the many events Bonnie is organizing. The Cocktails and Clay series is very popular and sells out fast. Each time there is a different piece, so you can come multiple times. They also offer a more classic technique-forward course and many classes for kiddos! Throughout the pandemic, Bonnie had some awesome events, where you could pick a ready dish for painting at home etc. I am so looking forward to coming back at some point! There is nothing more relaxing than making your hands busy & dirty, and train your creative muscles, while forgetting the daily worries. Very relaxing and fun!

I have been to other studios, but at this studio we actually used a palette and I learned some things about painting. We're already talking about going back to I.C.I. to have a birthday party!

This was our first time at AR workshop and unfortunately we won't be returning to the Mason…read morelocation. It was a family outing on Black Friday. We arrived at 12:50 since our class time was 1 pm. Upon arrival there was nobody at the front desk to check is in, which is fine since there were several young girls setting up tables. However, after 10 minutes someone should of have come over and talked with us. We waited another 10 minutes (after 1 pm), when someone came to us and informed us that they were having trouble printing some of the graphics. We finally set down at a table against the wall that had remnant works on the floor next with exposed nails. Keep in mind we had two kids with us, you'd think the space around your work table should be safe. By this time the other 5 tables had started working on their projects and we were still waiting. It is now 1:25. We felt like people kept looking at us since we were just sitting there. On top of it, we were the only group of color and definitely were feeling like we were being treated differently. I am sure the other tables that day could attest to that. I didn't want to make a scene with the kids in our group so I didn't say anything but upon reflecting I should have. The projects were fine. The kids made a tray and wooden storage box...the kids wood pieces should have been sanded down a little more before they were given to us. It was not possible to sand them down with the tools that were provided. We also were never told about aprons until we asked for them. I made tea towels, utensil box...the cut out for the tea towels was missing letters. My cousin made a doormat and my sister made a pillowcase. I'm just surprised that the cutouts and workshop are not ready prior to the day of the event. We were almost late to a dinner reservation because we got out of AR so late. Looking back, I think a mere apology is not sufficient. So many things were not right....starting over 30 minutes late, unsafe work bench, unsafe wood pieces for kids, cutouts with missing letters, and honestly feeling ignored during most of the workshop. I guess they are not interested in our business and I will happily take it elsewhere.

They loved it. I remember seeing the Madcap Puppets as a little kid, downtown Cincinnati, 36+ years ago. It brought back memories. The package came with the cutest felt ornament crafts.

Not some recording like you see most often. It was a 10-15 minute conversation with Santa. He was so engaging and nice. It seriously made her day. I highly recommend supporting ArtsConnect!
