In a couple of weeks - our pieces will be ready to be painted by us; then they'll finish those off in their kiln (all steps included in the very reasonable price for the class) - wonderful rainy day or hot summer indoor activity. We also shared the space with an adorable group of children celebrating a birthday and they were all having the best time painting pre made pottery - and enjoyed cupcakes on the picnic tables outside. Afterwards, make sure to visit their gallery for more inspiration and great gifts. Plenty of on-site free parking and several restaurants as well. Sign up for classes in advance online or stop in to paint

I called to ask because we had received no notice, and they told us ASAP in the middle of the work week. I said I would get down before the week's end. I made time the next day to drive out of town, and can you believe we were charged $5 to pick up artwork that we already paid to submit? They made no mention of a late charge over the phone and when we had no pick up time, either. I bet they spent less on the ribbon for the award.

This place is totally disorganized. I purchased a wyland piece for my husband for Christmas. I knew…read morewhat I wanted so all I had to do was go in and point out the piece. You cannot walk out with the art you purchased that day but they order it for you. Which was fine with me as long as it made it on time for Christmas. For this reason that I got what I wanted in time for when I needed it I gave an extra star. Here's where the rest of the story gets ugly: I was told to make a down payment and then the rest of it would come out of my account on Dec 15th. Then later that day the rep called me and stated he needed my CC info and photo of my ID again over the phone/text. I reluctantly obliged but that set off a flag to pay a little more attention to this transaction. On Dec 1st a charge was made for the remaining balance for this item. I waited for 2 days to see if I got an email or message with a tracking number. I received no notification or tracking number. So I texted my rep that texted me asking for my personal info a couple of weeks prior-No answer. So then I called the gallery during business hours in a Saturday-no answer. So I called the reps phone that was working with me-no answer. So I sent an email asking about this-I never got a response to me email ever. I decided I'd drive in the next day and see what was up. My rep texted me while I was already en route to St. Armand's that he was off on Saturday and would look today. Why couldn't he just have texted that the day before and said he wasn't working and would get back to me?!? I figured I'd already make a day of it coming down anyways so I still went down to ask my questions and maybe get a tracking number. WHEN I CAME IN HE ROLLED HIS EYES AND SAID I TEXTED YOU THIS MORNING before I could say a word!!! I could've melted I was so mad. About 2 days later he gave me a tracking number in my order. When I came back to pick up the item from the store another gentleman had to help me because my rep left for the day. This other rep kept leaving me to go try to make other sales. It took over an hour to pick up an item I had a slip for and paid in full. The people were not coming in to buy they were just trying to get out of the rain. Then they lost the shipping box it came in and the man wrapped my sculpture in bubble wrap and put it in a different cloth bag that I think was meant for the bronze statues that they sell there. Also, my mom wanted to buy a light box for her piece she owns and the rep wanted to just put it in under my account because he was too lazy to switch to file for her account. All in all they were rude, unprofessional, and unorganized. I will never buy another piece from here again.

The prices range from just a few of dollars for handcrafted three dimensional cards, to many more dollars for large wood carvings.

They dont sit down and order from some wholesaler in NY - They actually travel each year to Africa and do their buying. They dont deal with numerous wholesalers and middlemen.

They actually go to these regions, provide "real" empowerment for the people of the continent through direct contact and commerce. My favorite store and it is genuine!
