They have one day classes and longer-term workshops that cater to beginners, and those who have been doing art all of their lives. All you have to do is come in with your imagination. They offer acrylic, pouring classes, watercolor, classes, pottery, and more! I believe the classes are a good value for the price and so are the items that are sold within the studio. I highly recommend their handmade earrings.
