I am honored to be the first to give this 5-star establishment a review. According to the owner,…read moreit's been around for a couple of years so I'm surprised that it hasn't had a review yet. I think it might be because the location of it is not easy to find. It's behind a small shopping strip. Even the directions that Yelp has on here is confusing when you put it on the GPS it'll take you to the strip but then you have to make sure to drive around the back. I've been doing pottery for close to a year back home, but when I came to visit family, they expressed a desire to do something pottery related and so I came on here to Yelp and found out about Ceramic Studio. It's a small place. Immediately when you walk in, you'll see loads of ceramics that are available for glazing/painting. It ranges from as cheap as $5. What I like most about this place is that the price you see on the ceramic piece is the final price (not including of course tax and if you use credit card you'll be charged $2) I've been to other ceramic painting places and if you use glazes like the jungle gems, that's extra or you'll get an extra firing fee. They don't do that here, and I appreciate that. There's two rooms. One where walk-ins can come and paint, and another for if you book a party. When I was there, I felt like I was at a family members house. It's hard to describe. It's just really laid back and comfortable. They use a white bodied clay, and the glazes you can choose from are Mayco brand. I use Mayco when I do my pottery pieces and it's a good brand. I like that they have a chart with sample pieces of what they can come out looking like after firing. When you're new to glazing, a lot of times you don't realize that the paint color you use comes out looking totally different after firing, and they do a good job of letting you know what you can expect. You can see our before and after pics that I posted on here to get an idea. Overall, this spot is very affordable, felt right at home and if I lived in this area I'd probably be there all the time.

Paint, meet new people, chat, eat, drink, try something new and different--Paint Nite has it all!! My friend and I painted a moonlit beach scene at Wood 'N' Tap in Hartford with the guidance of Jessica Behm, our instructor. Jess was outstanding. She was kind, patient, and very helpful. She broke down the techniques, and walked the group through each step at a perfect pace to follow along. She walked around and gave tips about how to do a certain technique and showed how she did it, too. Jess made everything very easy to understand. She really knew what she is doing!! She was just wonderful!! I'm not very good with paints and painting in general, and I'm so proud of and love my moonlit beach scene, thanks to Jess!! We enjoyed well-made drinks, and listened to music in the background, while we painted in this nice and spacious venue. The only negative about the room was that the lighting was not the best, and it was difficult at times to see the paints and colors clearly. It was otherwise very comfortable and easy to get up and access the instructor's work (to view it up close) as well as access the paints and other materials supplied. I'm looking forward to attending more of these nights, with painting and chatting with new friends, and just trying something new and different. I'm going to have to open a gallery with all of my masterpieces!!

Really, you didn't know this the day before. Then to add insult to injury you off 10% off a future class. I could find a better deal than that in the internet and it doesn't even pay for my gas to get to the canceled event. You can be sure I'll never sin up for another event by PaintNite with this lack of consideration
