Let me start by saying the owner of AR Workshop and her daughters are AMAZING. They are all so kind…read moreand genuine when helping and talking with you. I've gone here twice now, once for a private event and again just this past week so I've been able to make two items here. I've made the lazy Susan and the chunky knit blanket. Both experiences were far beyond what I thought they would be. Again the staff is so incredible and a lot are SCAD students with all different outlooks on art. The experience both times was very personable and all around a fun time. I will 100% be coming back to AR Workshop. The owner was actually telling me they've set up some cool $10/$15 projects for walk ins and that's right up my alley! Affordable and fun! I can't wait to come back and share more experiences with the yelp community.

The class was designed for all…read moreexperience levels, and I think we all walked out of there that night feeling exuberantly proud. I couldn't wait for the next class! When Art Nook started offering evening adult classes, I was the first person to sign up! Taking art to the next level, students are guided through learning a variety of methodologies: acrylic, pastels, colored pencil, watercolor... Classes are again designed for all experience levels, with specific projects in mind and 2-4 week timeframes, depending on the project. Learning how to "art" at Art Nook is amazing. It can be a fun night out, or you can make it completely immersive by joining the ongoing classes. The staff is great with all age groups and ability levels. I encourage everyone who reads this review to try this place out. You can thank me later!
