I have been taking painting classes at Art League for the past 2 years. I really enjoy it. The…read moreclasses last 8-10 weeks and are offered with a variety of themes, times, and teachers. The first year, I had two classes with a teacher that had a more relaxed approach and more of a focus on fun. Now that I have gotten more serious about honing my skills, I have been attending a more structured class that has a specific goal each class and a homework assignment. Don't worry, you're not getting graded! Some weeks, homework just doesn't happen. *glances at the stack of 4 finished and 3 unfinished pieces from this semester* :) Classes run around $30/class, which is perfect. It may seem a little rough when the full price hits the card + that expensive trip for supplies, but remember that you are getting 3 hours/week with an accomplished artist in a studio. Being an ALH student also gets you a discount at the art supply store on Main St. Don't forget to show them your supply list when checking out for this discount. Zac organizes the classes and is very helpful. He's the person to contact with any questions. Friendly guy. As for the actual art displays, I am not always a fan. I always check out the latest exhibition and it's a mix. Right now there is a wooden beehive-type thing. I'm just not feeling it. There have been some very cool pieces that came through in the past. Mix bag. They also do separate shows with the artwork of the individuals that participate in Healing Art, the students in the classes (like me), and the teachers. Healing Art is an art program for people with severe illnesses that is paid for by the donations and membership fees (being a member gets you discounted classes and is annual). The openings of new shows are a lot of fun. Even if you don't paint/draw/make jewelry/collage, just come check out a show.

Went for Valentines day and my partner and I enjoyed our experience. Immediately greeted when we…read moreentered and automatically felt like in a new art world. We were assisted with confirming our art piece and selecting the colors. We were able to put on protective gear and get started right away. The staff were very helpful during the process and ensured our paints were full. I enjoyed being in our own space, away from others. one thing I wish I could compare more is the price ($80 per person). We did the smaller bears and other locations have it starting at $50. I understand things cost money, but that was pretty steep, in my opinion, for an experience that lasted all of 15 minutes.

This experience was so fun, magical, and forever rememberable. You can bring the family, date,…read morefriends, whomever for a fun experience. We did the bear experience and the instructor was so friendly as cool, yet patient. Gave detailed instructions and helped us along the way. We loved it and will tell anyone to come try it out.

I…read morewent alone on a "solo date" to try it out, and while I did have a great time, you are very much paying for the experience (it's about $70 per plushie-making session) more so than the materials and finished product, so you would get a lot more bang for your buck if you had friends along! The ladies who helped us with the process were very patient, even with several energetic kids in the group. All of the designs are super cute and you can customize small bits of it (such as choosing the placement of the eyes and mouth). There are also extra accessories you can add on for a bit of a price (but it's because they are premade handmade crochet items so there is cost of labor involved!) I made a blue dino with blue spikes and although he came out a little more rotund than I expected, I love the finished product!

The instructors are very nice and helpful. You get an intro and two hours to complete & glaze your piece. They fire your pieces for you, and I've never been disappointed with the outcome. They've recently started doing handbuilding 6-week series that I wish I could be apart of, but unfortunately as of now it's on Sundays in the middle of the day, and I frequently work weekends during that time. If they offered a weekday handbuilding series, I would be all over that like white on rice.

Literally there was one employee to run this entire event from Black Phlox. We were not greeted at all. The AT&T vendor was also present did and that person went and got us the little form that you're supposed to fill out while you're making your diffuser. There were times slots you had to sign up for. This was not regulated or enforced if you will. People took our spots and mind you our slot was 630 so you know we could've gone to dinner or done something else. I just feel the whole thing was a waste of my time. We ended up leaving because literally there was no greeting, no interaction, no direction and no spot available despite our reservations big disappointment. :( Sorry about the blurry picture, but there was literally nothing to take pictures of.
