    Excellent and a great way to spend time. Art Escape is one of my favorite places to spend time in the Lakes Region. This is certainly due to the fact that each visit is relaxing and opens the door to an escape to a fun and creative session. The options are many. It's not just a family memory destination. The most repeat customers are likely those looking to chill and have a good time. I unequivocally recommend you give it a shot, every time I go I have fun and leave with a great creation.

    My project.

    We came in this Sunday for a family fun day. Sarah was amazingly helpful, guided us on our projects, and provided an awesome experience. Something that is rare these days. If you're looking for a family outing on a rainy day, you won't go wrong at art escape.

    Went here last night for "Harry Potter, Paint and Sip night" and oh my god did I have so much fun! I bought tickets online well in advance and was not disappointed. This was my 2nd ever visit to Art Escape and it won't be my last. They decorated the entire place top-to-bottom with Harry Potter decor', played the HP soundtrack as music in the background, and laid out a bunch of ceramics that fit the theme to pick from. How could I not have a great time in such a fun environment? The staff all dressed up and they were all extremely friendly and helpful. Will definitley be returning!

    Splatter painting - A vibrant art space featuring walls and stools splattered with neon-colored paint, illuminated by blacklight, creating a glow-in-the-dark effect.

    Fun place for some family time. Really liked the splatter room. They also had ceramics, canvas, and pottery wheels to choose from. Lots of great options.

    Spent some time skiing at Gunstock. Day 3 was raining so we stopped in to get our art fix. The owner Jean was amazingly! We painted and did clay. The kids had a blast;8, 8 and 6. She was so helpful with our projects and helped us find a cool lunch spot. Next time we are back in Laconia, definitely revisiting!

    Lots of choices!

    Took my granddaughter here as a special treat during her school vacation. I have driven past this business many times and was curious, but had never stopped in before. The actual space where projects are created is not big by any means, but the offering of activities available is displayed and organized in an efficient manner. There are long tables to work at and they are equipped with tiles to put your paints and glazes on, brushes, sponges and water and other incidentals one might need.There is also a smaller room that appeared to be used by a camp activity that day. There were several offerings of activities---painting on canvas, glazing pottery, working with clay and glass used to make jewelry and other items. It was a hard choice for my 8 year old granddaughter to make, but she decided she wanted to do the glazing so she chose a mug to work with for her mom. Next came the choice of colors from the vast selection which I thought might take forever, but she knew what she wanted so we sat at one of the long tables and she diligently applied the glaze to the mug. One of the ladies working there had explained the dos and don'ts and checked in frequently and was available to answer any questions. Prices seemed quite reasonable and included everything needed---no hidden costs! We went on a Monday and the mug won't be ready for over a week so I imagine the kiln is not on property. That seems like a long time and could be a drawback, but as long as it's ready before Mother's Day it will work this time.

    I held a wine and paint party for my mom's birthday. It was affordable, fun and something different to do. The ladies arranging it were helpful and flexible, but didn't always remember the details I had confirmed with them. But in the end it all worked out. If I were to do it again I would ask for the room separate from the entrance for more privacy because they did get walk-ins.

    See all

    Had a great time painting wine glasses for a private birthday party! Can't wait to go back and paint some more.

    They will go in the kiln and we will return to paint them in a week or so, then they will fire them again.

    Watched them kick out a little boy who was having a small moment. While at a party he was invited…read moreto was happening. His friends had no idea what was going on so that is the extent of his 'disruption' so little that you had to be withing a foot of him. All he needed was a few minutes to Transition, no one event noticed what was going on and Yet this establishment asked him to leave. For them it was no big deal to remove a child who wasn't even doing anything big, rather than be inclusive and understanding. So if you have a child who has any sort of disability, or that may be needing a few minutes to reset, This IS NOT THE PLACE FOR THEM. They will ASK your kid to leave INFROUNT of your kid, who will hear and UNDERSTAND, that they were NOT welcomed in this establishment. Do BETTER!

    My son was invited to a birthday party there where the parents rented the whole place and explained…read morethat there were kids with disabilities attending. When my son with disabilities arrived, he was slightly loud and complaining about how uncomfortable the chairs were while I was trying to help him. The manager approached us and told him that he needed to leave. He was unable to attend his friends party, with all of the friends, and left crying, saying, "I'm such a bad boy". This place is not accommodating, discriminatory, and non-inclusive to individuals with disabilities or even for just children having a moment. We will never go back there and have never been so insulted.
