I searched almost all of Pittsburgh to find availability for a private lesson on wheel throwing…read moreand everywhere was basically booked up until next year. Then I found this studio that had plenty of availability with very seasoned instructors. I took a private class with Leslie and it was amazing. She really took the time to teach and guide me through wheel throwing, and was VERY patient with me. I knew nothing about this art and when I came out, I felt so accomplished. Also, she's an amazing artist and has been doing this for a very long time. I will definitely be back for more classes!! The price of a 1.5hr private lesson was actually pretty affordable compared to all the other studios I researched too.

I adore this place!

The overall ambience is magical and dreamlike. Every worker there has been kind, attentive, and relaxing to be around. Not to mention extremely affordable and accessible. Definitely a safe space. I highly recommend coming here for any creative venture, relaxing outlet, or just wanting to meet new people.

Had a ceramics class with Liana. I had a great time and made cute pieces…read more Update: when I was finally able to pick up my items after two months, none of them were done right. I'm not going to take the time to enumerate everything that is wrong, but I was told that the pictured piece fell off in the kiln. If that were true, there wouldn't be glaze on the surfaces that need to be re-joined. This cannot even be fixed. So in addition to doing careless work with the glaze, they were untruthful about what happened. This was a frankly a terrible experience.

Took a planter class in April. Was told it would be a month. Every time we asked, they had excuses…read moreand said it still wasn't ready. Said we wanted to pickup our pieces whether they were finished or not and would finish the pieces elsewhere. The day we were coming, they called to say it was ready. One piece was glazed only halfway and in the wrong color. The other was over glazed enough so the relief is gone and they dripped another glaze on it and you can see the finger mark where they attempted to wipe it off. When we called about a refund, we were quite frustrated and were told that we needed a discussion with the instructor to figure out if they had done anything wrong. Could not be more disappointed. Will never return. Would recommend trying somewhere else if someone is considering going here.

My 2yr old daughter loved it here! It was so much fun. The owner was very kind and she greeted us…read moreright away. There's ceramics, all kinds of colors of paints, and canvas. The brushes are nice and come in all sizes. The prices are amazing! Soo worth it. She got a little apron too; to protect her clothes. So cute! She dried the canvases for use before we left and gave us a bag to put them in. We will definitely be back for another painting! :) Highly recommend Artsy Doodle!!! They do paint and sips too which is amazing! Great for parties.

Make sure you leave enough time to paint the whole pottery as it take more time than you would think.

I'm not an artist by any means but they pre sketch your canvas and then walk you through the steps and I think our paintings turned out pretty awesome. I can't wait to go back and do a couples night with my husband!

The stars aligned for me when a keyword search using the term "bouncy" resulted in an indoor…read moreplayground in the Robinson mall. I needed a new pair of shoes and my husband needed jeans and the kids needed out of the house. Even better was the pricing; where else can your kids get this kind of playtime for $10-12? This location has a bouncy house, climbing wall, indoor ball pit, slide, climbing gym, and a three-and-under area for my young toddler daughter. I wanted to take more pictures but there were many kids around so respecting privacy- some of my angles are cropped weird to cut them out. Did the best I could! Anyway, it was time well spent. It was clean, there was a gate so the kids can't sprint out. Only complaint is there isn't anywhere for strollers to go except unattended at the front door, any passerby could access it. Not great, next time we will leave it at home. They do kids birthday parties too, all in all highly recommend.

Attended a student art show last night with a friend who teaches a class at PCA. There were so fantastic pieces created by the adult students. In addition of course there were other exhibits that we were able to tour. When I was in art school this was a place we visited often. Time to get back in the swing of things. The gift shop is still fantastic and filled with lots of unique items.

After brunch at Square cafe we needed to take a little walk and absorb some rays. It is a very serene setting and once they get the fountain running I may just come to sit and ponder. The building is so big and they offer many summer art classes so check out the website to see what they have. Events are held here all summer, mostly weddings. I went in to see the printmaking lab, I mostly do screenprinting but they don't have the light tables or screens here. The receptionist was so helpful and said that there would be printmaking classes over the summer and to call one of the directors to see what they might be able to do for me in regards to the type of medium I want to work with. If you need a place to do intaglio or relief printing they have a great space to print!
