My friend and I had signed up and paid earlier that day.. I also had 2 more girls that wanted to join us, but about an hour before it was scheduled to start my friend got a call saying they had decided to cancel the wine and paint class that evening because they didn't have enough people signed up. Let me be clear, I completely understand that but it shld be clearly disclosed on the web page that you will cancel events that don't have enough attendance.. don't allow me to book a class at 1:30pm on a Friday evening for 630pm that same day especially if you already know you are probably going to cancel it. Put a disclosure on the site that says something like 'if we don't have 10 people signed up for this evenings event it will be cancelled and so far we have 0.. ' so people know and don't plan their whole night around going to this cancelled event... especially when you have a strict no refund policy when a customer cancels within 24 hours of said event.. just give potential customers the same courtesy you expect them to give you......

Maybe once they get bigger and can get into a much bigger space, this will be a possibility. Each project sells out quickly, sometimes w/in minutes so you must check out their calendar regularly.

I wanted to give my grandson something different for his birthday. He still got a few new golf…read moreshirts, but we also did a "Try Me" class throwing clay on a wheel at the Clay Center. Madeline was our instructor and was fabulous. Very kind, informative and patient. We each created three pieces and were able to keep our two best. Once completed, we moved to the glazing station and were able to personalize our pieces. All materials were included. Bring a beach towel to throw over your lap to dry your hands and prepare to get a little messy! We met a lovely couple who were also "throwing" for the first time. It was a surprise birthday present from her husband. We had a lot of fun and can't wait to see our finished works of art once they are fired. Additionally they have lovely pieces for sale made by local artisans who rent cubicles in the studio.

I bought a deal on Groupon. Their website makes it easy to redeem your Groupon as you just pick the…read moreclass that is marked for Groupons. The only tricky part is that the classes are small so finding availability can be tough. One thing I will say is that if you purchase a Groupon, this is not a one-day task completion. You have to throw your pieces during the wheel class and then schedule yourself to come back in a few weeks after the pieces are dry and glaze your pottery. Then, you have to come back in a few weeks to pick up your finished pottery. My class was in mid-January. I came back to glaze in mid-February and then due to the coronavirus, I just picked up my finished pieces last weekend. They hold your finished pieces for about 3 months. The staff was very pleasant in all aspects of this business. I had to email early on since my Groupon was about to expire and they didn't have availability and they pleasantly let me know I could schedule even if my Groupon expired. I won't say that this will happen for you, but I thought it was nice. The lady that taught the wheel throwing class was also very patient and focused on making sure you made a quality piece that you could be proud of. You get to throw two pieces, so if you mess up one, then you have a backup. The class was for about 1-2 hours. When I came back to glaze about 3 weeks later, it was nice to just sit and paint amongst other amateurs guessing how their pieces would turn out after they were fired. It was kind of calming just painting. I had to email again to ask if I would be able to pick up my pieces as I didn't want them to be tossed out. The staff again kindly let me know how long they keep pottery. Then, coronavirus happened and I think everyone's policies changed daily. The staff still assured me that my pieces would be there when I contacted them through Facebook messenger. Nonetheless, I'm happy with the pieces I made. Even though the whole process from start to finish took a while, I think this activity was great for the price I paid on Groupon.

Without a doubt my favorite gallery in the area. The Vincent William Gallery, established in 1993,…read moreis artist owned and operated and represents over 40 local professional artists. Featuring all original artwork you'll be able to see; Custom Stained Glass Design (including some great pieces by Vincent), Original Paintings, Ceramics, Fused and Blown Glass (work by Katy Mattice and Chuck Boux), Jewelry, Sculpture, Photography and Raku. Every time we are in the area we stop in. On this visit we met Katy Mattice, who's medium is fused glass. What made the visit special is the we learned about the fuse glass process, which is much more complicated than I would ever have imagined. If you are are Corey Ave., you owe it to yourself to stop in the Vincent William Gallery. Gallery Hours are Monday through Saturday 10am - 5pm, Closed Sunday.

I read about this gallery in one of the magazines that I had ordered prior to our trip to the St. Pete Beach area. I was really excited to hit up some of the places on Corrie Ave. Vincent was not at all overbearing and allowed me to take my time and walk around the store. He specializes in a handful of local artists and has the art displayed in a way that allows you to see it all. I ended up buying 3 items and had Vincent ship it back to CT for me. If you like art, even if you're not an expert (as I am not), I would highly recommend popping into this gallery. It's well worth the trip.
