    My daughter has been coming to Drawn2Art for more than a year. She loves coming here. She has shown so much growth in her art skills, but most importantly she has fun doing it. The instructors are great. They are kind, supportive and patient with the kids. The studio manager, Lauren is very accommodating and flexible with changing schedule and makeup class. She always respond to my email or phone call quickly. Since the pandemic, they implemented strict safety guidelines and only allow 5-6 students per class so I feel safe sending my daughter there. Their summer camps is also great too. I highly recommend this place!

    Art Work Place - So happy making art!

    I have to say I'm disappointed in Ms Billy. Initially she seemed like a great teacher - as my son…read morehad positive feedback and seemed to enjoy the class. Gradually my son would come home sad and upset. At first, I brushed off his complaints as maybe he just had a random rough day. Today, I picked up my son and Ms. Billy complained about his projects and all kinds of stuff right in front of my son. My son came to the car crying feeling terrible about his artwork. I asked him several questions about what happened as I didn't want to make any rash judgements about the teacher. He explained that he felt that Ms. Billie was being mean to him and that he was really struggling with clay (it's a new skill for him). I asked if she helps him with his clay a little extra since he's obviously struggling more than the rest of the more experienced students (I'd think she'd spend a little extra time with him). He said no - she was drinking tea and when she came back he had made a snail project where its tongue broke off and couldn't put it back on. He said he destroyed it and my son said she made another mean comment to him: "ohh so you're breaking stuff, instead of making stuff". He was struggling to put on the tongue, which you didn't help him with. Ms. Billy told me it was Gary the snail which didn't go with the CA theme they're working on. Ok. My question is: how is one of your struggling students able to make an entire snail project without you noticing until he's that far along with it? Then, the tongue falls ogf of it, you make a comment to him about it being wrong, he destroys it, you make another comment to him about him about breaking things instead of making things. Ok. If she's going to drink tea instead of helping struggling students then she shouldn't be surprised about them struggling. He said she was helping the other students - not him so much. He also said he got up to grab a toothpick, and she said to him "you're disrupting the entire class" and he was embarrassed that all the kids stared at him. He wasn't being defiant but she keeps treating him as if he is. My son said he was really surprised at how mean Ms. Billy was treating him - he genuinely didn't know he was doing anything wrong, She did sound agitated when she was complaining to me about my son. I know my son - he's not a bad kid and he's super kind. I'm not just saying that because he's my son. He truly is. I'm the type of person that takes criticism well and I'm happy to help correct behavior when necessary. In this case, I really feel that Ms. Billy is not spending enough time with struggling students - in my sons case not understanding instructions according to her. I didn't appreciate her putting my son down in front of both my husband and I. Ms. Billy made it sound as if my son was being defiant - I can assure you my son is not defiant - he genuinely is just having a hard time with the project! He's asking for help from his teacher in his own 8 year old way. He just turned 8 by the way. Mrs. Elizabeth in the front is amazing on the other hand! Very helpful and kind lady.

    My children love the classes and camps at Art/Work/Place- it's always a good sign when I try to…read morepick them up after a full day of camp but they wish they could stay and keep playing! The teachers here are incredible and create such a warm environment and sense of safety where children create and learn to their full capacities. I appreciate Ruby Hannan, Anayantzin Sanchez, and Billie Frolov who have all guided our kids in various classes & camps including Claymation, Make Your Own Stuffie, Mini Makers, and Youth Lessons. We've also been to some cool events here for children, our favorite being when they invited the animators from the new Ninja Turtles movie/Mitchell's Vs. the Machines to come talk to the students and show them people can become animators when they grow up! Truly an inspiring place where children come to explore and create their own art. So thankful to have found this studio! *also editing my review to add that I specialize in a field of child development & communication; I respectfully disagree with the parents below who claim this place is merely a bunch of babysitters or that their children didn't learn anything during their time here. I've been so impressed the way the educators here scaffold the summer camp in a way that the older kids are making Claymation videos or sewing stuffies alongside the younger ones. No one is so frustrated that they can't participate and at the same time these kids are challenged!! My children had increases in their artistic abilities, social skills, vocabulary, fine motor skills, ability to use technology to create art, and I would go so far as to say even their overall self esteem, as the final art show is truly a special time for families to come together and celebrate what these children have created with the guidance of some awesome instructors. Sorry, but I could go on! The only time I've ever seen the tv on at Art/Work/Place was during the gorgeous, hilarious, magical Claymation Camp viewing party a year ago and the time the Ninja Turtles animators used it to show us some clips from a movie they made. Again, context matters.... Let your kids give them a try and decide for yourself :)

    SPLAT Action Art Studio is a great creative spot in South Pasadena…read more Parking was easy with free parking available, plus additional parking in the back, which is always a big plus for families. Before the class starts, the instructor gives a clear demo, and throughout the session, there are screens showing techniques step-by-step, so kids can comfortably follow along and adapt at their own pace. Nothing feels difficult or intimidating. The instructor quietly walks around, making sure each child has what they need and offering support without interrupting their creative flow. They're attentive, calm, and truly professional. The pricing is a bit on the higher side, but totally worth it for the quality of instruction and support. Check for promotions or deals. Overall, it's a relaxed, well-organized space where kids can enjoy creating freely and parents can feel at ease. We had such a great experience and would definitely come back

No one was in the studio so we had the entire studio to ourselves. It was fun watching our littles create and use their imagination. All of the tools they have to paint spark creativity and thinking for kids. Of course the little blow dryers were our girls favorites. (Mine too) We recently hosted our other daughter's 5th birthday party. She had 10 friends who ALL had an amazing time. All of the parents and kids loved the freedom they had to create. Everyone thought it was such a fun and unique experience. Everything went smoothly we had time to paint, eat, have desserts and take fun pictures with Props. Lastly both the owners are kind and so very Helpful. Special shout out to Michael. Always so pleasant, helpful and just a good time. The music is also a vibe in here! We love it and our kids do too! Can't wait to go back.

Also there is a lot across from the Art building that is free as well. Upon entering check in with the security log your name and time and they will give a name tag for the exhibit. It is not a big exhibit at but lots to see especially all the culture and influences which make what J-Town in LA was all about back in the day during the Nisei Week festivities and the history of the cultural and what cruising was all about. Overall a very nice put together exhibit and brings back lots of memories of Nisei Week and cruising the Obon carnivals all leading up to the big Nisei Obon carnival cruise.

Quite small so when I asked if there were more to see, I was led to the transportation design area. Both were quite small but interesting. Then I asked a random student if there were more art displays and that's when I hit the jackpot! He was gracious enough to take me on a guided tour of the campus to see illustrations and paintings from other student artists. Huge shout out to him if he ever reads this review for being so kind to take me around, a random stranger helping another stranger. I've been to many art galleries and museums all over the world and was really impressed. Students here are super talented and I applaud your work and passion to pursue your talents. He had key card access to all the floors so if it weren't for him, I wouldn't have been able to see much. Was told that they do have public displays where you could purchase them. Free parking on campus and the exhibits close at 8pm. I had a fantastic time! Didn't take pictures of the student artwork since they were not for public display.

I've taken art classes at community colleges before and I do notice a differance in the level of information, communication, and style at Art Center. I took a design and composition class and really do feel I was stretched but not uncomfortably so. The information my teacher provided was well commicated, easy to understand, and most importantly I was able to understand the underlying concepts of what I was learning and apply it to real world design problems. I really like how interactive and collabortative the environment feels. If you're looking for a creative outlet, ACN is a good option. They're expanding so maybe they will have more classes. The neat thing is that some of these courses can be used as credit towards your study if you're admitted into Art Center. Many people here use this as a springboard into Art Center.

Disciplines covered include business management, digital media, entertainment design, and graphic design. Don't buy gift certificates to this though, because getting them refunded/reissued takes months. I use this program to sharpen my conceptual skills or update my knowledge base. If you outgrow art classes at community collage, ACAN has challenging and hands-on courses for adults, high school students, and kids that also serve as a feeder to the degree program.

She was thoughtful and showed up early so we could use the kitchen and bar area to set up our appetizers and drinks. She set up the art stations while we drank and ate. Later she lead the class while also taking candid photos of our group. She took her time explaining the process and checking in to make sure we were all following along. Aja was fun and entertaining. She took various groups shots always paying great attention to detail. This was a wonderful experience and I would absolutely book again. We were the only party at the time, she laid out all the art to choose from. The space was clean and large enough to accommodate my 10 group and plenty of space to walk around.

She has such a calm demeanor and so much patience with kid and adults. I would highly recommend her. Her love of art and experience with kids is so amazing!
