Pretty much every Wednesday I tune in for their Live Facebook shopping events. A couple weeks ago I…read moredid just that. Normally, I ask for delivery of my items, but this time I wanted to check out the store front. I walked in and was immediately drawn in. This store set up is great. It is welcoming and homey and comfortable. I like the ceiling. Check that out. Olivia, the dog, I finally got to meet so that was nice as well. There are so many great items for sale, vintage, new, created, etc. This is a great place to pick up items for gifts, or for yourself. Check it out.

I honestly love it here!!! The shop has such an amazing selection of local themed goods. I love the…read morevariety of hand-made items, unique gifts, and otherwise really amazing items to make your home look unique. I bought some gifts for myself and my MIL and it's always nice to show up with a "different" kind of gift that blows people away...this is the spot to find it. The owners are SO kind and welcoming, and that alone is enough to get me back in the door. I also attended one of their paint nights and it was so much fun! The step by step instructions were easy to follow and they were kind enough to take time for anyone who was struggling. I walked away with an awesome wooden little football dude for my porch!!! I am always checking back to see what class I can come to next. Would recommend.

I have been at this spot to buy some craft items before, but I also recently went to their monthly…read morebook club and craft night and it was outstanding. The book was Love and Other Words by Christina Lauren. You register for the class and pay online. It is an easy process. You pick up the book before the class. You have a few weeks to read the book and then show up to the book club, where you discuss the book while making a craft. I love this concept. This was my dream night/class, getting to read a book and then craft while discussing it. There were about 8 people there and the instructor. Everyone was so kind and excited to be there and talk about the book. The craft was tote bags. We took acrylic paint and painted a bunch of books on there. There were so many creative designs.  The space at Musejar is wonderful. There is a separate entry for art classes and the store. The store has some super cool craft products, as well as a large selection of fiber items, and decor. It is inviting and warm and always decorated with the season or holiday. The art space is open, bright and has everything you need to make your project successful.

Yarn art, markers paradise, colored pencils, paper, you get the gist. Plus there is a pottery studio! I had the best class ever with Heidi. She's an amazing teacher and a great potter. The shop has areas designated as class spots with tables and chairs for group learning. There is a couch to hang out on and knit or just visit. It's warm and welcoming and many collaborative efforts happen via classes within the community. See their website for a calendar or listing of classes. Some classes are for just a session others for weeks. And there's pottery date nights that sell out nearly instantly. I'd recommend MuseJar.

The cost for the 8 lessons are $175, very reasonable for the 2-hour lesson each week. It covers basic drWing techniques on the first 4 lessons, then we get to practice for the next 4 lessons. If you are looking for some ME time, this is highly recommended. I look forward to the class each week. They also have other types of art classes, such as ceramics, acrylic, oil, etc. Parking is on street or in the lot across.

What a hidden gem! I saw a sign for an Art Centre and naturally, I had to investigate! In an old…read morepumphouse, with a lighthouse on the property- you will find a quaint little art centre, gallery and studio space for classes. They are currently looking for a pottery instructor too! The gallery space was phenomenal, No pictures are allowed of the artwork, so my only photos are outside, but the space just is wonderful. The first room featured one artist- abstract paintings with vivid colors that really spoke to me and had me wanting to come home and paint! I have a huge canvas hanging in my bedroom that I spent 3 months creating, abstract- some of it was literally me finger painting, lol. But it felt the same as this body of work- playful, open to interpretation. I saw windows, faces, mindscapes. John said they had great texture and he said he easily could see my own work in a similar fashion. The second larger room doubled as a classroom/studio with plenty of storage and countertops, open flooring to set up tables for projects. I can only imagine they also use the yard outside for space- especially on a gorgeous day like when we were there. Situated right on the mouth of the Niagra River- there are stunning views with wonderful breezes off the water. All of the art is for sale, so support a wonderful artist! You can also make a donation directly to the centre- which we did! Love me some art ;)

From the owner: Make, Shape, Stitch this Summer at +CREATE!…read more Join us from July through the end of August for a creative summer camp experience designed for curious makers ages 4–7, 8+, and 12+. At +CREATE, children explore clay, textiles, mixed media, and stop-motion animation in a welcoming, professional studio environment where creativity, confidence, and imagination come first. Our philosophy is simple: Small Groups, Big Imagination. With groups limited to approximately 10 participants, every camper receives individual guidance and the opportunity to work at their own pace while developing new skills and friendships. Choose from half-day or full-day camp options, with weekly programming that allows children to focus on clay, textiles, mixed media, or a combination of creative experiences. Campers staying for the full day enjoy a fully supervised lunch hour from 12:00–1:00 PM at our Cotton Factory studio. New for this season, we’re excited to expand our textile programming alongside our popular clay and mixed media studios. Youth ages 12 and up can also explore wheel throwing in our ceramic studio. Families receive 15% off additional registrations, whether enrolling siblings or booking multiple weeks of camp. Located in Hamilton’s historic Cotton Factory, +CREATE offers a supportive, inspiring, and affordable arts experience where children are encouraged to experiment, create, and discover. We look forward to welcoming your family this summer!

The board making class was very nice. Easy to follow and there were great saying and different boards you could pick from. The brunch food was so good and there was a lot left over! Unfortunately I think saying unlimited mimosas for the first hour wasn't as what it was listed as. The class leader pours your drinks but it felt hard/weird/awkward to ask for another glass. So each person there only got two glasses of mimosas. I over heard someone asking her for a third later on in the class and the lady said that after the first hour you have to pay. I thought that was wrong, at least for our class. There was really no direction with that.
