We got to meet and talk to Shelby about the art pieces on display. There were many beautiful pieces…read morewith some of them really standing out. They also had a glass blowing class while we were in the gallery. I'm seriously considering signing up once we're not having to deal with this 100 degree weather. Shelby was very knowledgeable and so pleasant to talk to. I did not purchase a piece but I'm considering returning to buy a glasswork once I've decided exactly what I want.

Glen and Ruth are super cool! They explained everything in layman's terms (or "explained like I'm…read morefive years old" as I like to say) and were with us every step of the way. I had done glass blowing previously while on a cruise and wanted to try a local place. I figured a glass blowing experience would be a fun Christmas gift for two of my closest female friends who had never done it before. We all really enjoyed ourselves and are planning our next visit. If you're looking for something a little different to gift someone, get out of your comfort zone and consider booking with Caliente. Thanks, Ruth & Glen!

Such a fun experience! My friends and I came here for a group beginners lesson. The teacher was…read morevery knowledgeable and passionate. For beginners the instructor explained everything in thorough detail and was willing to help if you struggled. The studio had many instruments to help with personalizing and designing you mug.

Sometimes it looks like there aren't enough tables/tools in there with all the customers but it always seems to work out! I would give 5 stars because we have continually gone back but I feel like more can be done to show what products are available. It's a silly complaint but I'm always a little bummed when I don't see a piece I would like to work on so I settle for something affordable. (Which in my experience range from $18, 22, 28, 34, etc. I am sure there are ones more/less costly) I also understand some items maybe seasonal or limited but I think snapping a couple pictures and updating their "inventory" on Facebook/Instagram a little more often could go a long way. Lastly, we have found ourselves wanting to go to the store a few times but arrive and realize they are only open Friday, Saturday and Sunday. This is key to remember when you go back to pick up the pieces you painted and paid for. Photos below are from August 2022.

Wow! What fun! So a group of us decided to come paint some pottery. Just pick a piece that you…read morelike. Prices vary by the size you choose. Grab a table and some paint and get started!

The only downside is that it can be very crowded, but I would definitely come back again.

I love that my son and I can now share conversations about what we learned at our classes and look forward to our next class! Eli being bilingual is a plus! I highly recommend Fine Art Studio!

The classes are paced based on each participants level of experience and what they're learning. The owner and instructor, Andrew, is considerate, kind and fun.

I would encourage anyone to just stop by and meet Andrew and Charlie. You'll love it there!

**BEWARE THIS PLACE IS A SCAM**…read more Go somewhere else for painting pottery! The ceramics are expensive with most pieces being between $32-$48, all with "Made in China" labels. However, there is no paint or kiln cost it's all included with the price of the ceramic so it makes sense that it is on the higher side. But with the cost of paint included we watched the employee ADD WATER into the paint bottles there. Then when I went to use the black paint it was so watery that it bled onto my other designs. I mean it's ceramic paint, not water color. When I told the girl working she said her boss added too much water to the black paint. My mom asked for the name of her boss and the girl said Videria but not sure how to spell it but didn't want to give her name. When I asked what to do about my piece because I had just spent hours working on it to have black paint run on it, she asked what I wanted her to do about it. I mean I feel like if you work at a pottery shop you should know how to wipe off paint or fix something if it gets messed up. My brother was working on a larger piece and on his second coat of paint when she came over and told him less goes farther. And took his paint away to bring him back a little amount. I'm not sure that treating people this way and diluting paints is the best way to run a paint pottery shop. If a boss or owner wants to reach out with their contact info my mom has a photo of the girl. At the end we spent $140 for four small ceramics and had inattentive service, and saw how slimy a business this place really is.

Say Si is a creative space for middle and high school students. My daughter is enrolled in the…read moremiddle school program that is held on Saturdays. Going into her second year she never hesitates to go despite having to wake up early on a weekend. She is in art and theater where they are always brainstorming ideas for new projects and plays. The staff delves into topics that are relevant to their age group. Last year they tackled the subject of death. It was a sensitive topic but handled with much care and reverence by teachers. They keep parents informed about upcoming themes and events. Students are required to maintain good grades in school and must have good attendance. There is an application process and students are selected in order to attend. Some of their artwork goes on display in the galleries and is also for sale. This is a great way for students to learn about the business side of art. I'm proud to have my kid enrolled here. She has made friends from other parts of town, diverse backgrounds and lifestyles. They are an inclusive institution and make sure everyone feels accepted and welcome. If your child is creative I highly Recommend Say Sí.
