I highly recommend Lopez to any parent looking for a place where their child can build both talent and confidence.

Our kids have very busy schedules with many extracurricular activities, but US Arts has been incredibly flexible with scheduling regular classes and makeup lessons.

The stained glass class for beginners was a great experience! Yana is very kind and knowledgeable…read more She did a great job pacing the class, attending to everyone, and explaining the different steps for putting together our stained glass projects. She was also willing to work with me and my visual impairment even though it seemed to be her first time having a visually impaired person in her class. She seemed nervous about it, but she was willing to put that aside, and we negotiated the parts of the class that would be safe for me to participate in (I didn't really want to try the soldering anyway lol). I think that was the thing that most impressed me, she was willing to step outside her comfort zone, and for someone who is teaching a new art form to a bunch of people who are probably stepping outside their own comfort zones I think this is a great quality to have! Highly recommend

I started to go to J Art in 6th grade. I'm now a senior in college (at my dream school, Rhode…read moreIsland School of Design!) and I can say for a fact that I would not have gotten to this point without J Art. I came here for 6-7 years constantly; I even moved to Florida for a couple years for my mom's job and I visited VA during my breaks just to attend J Art and work on my art. If it matters to the parents reading, J Art also helped me apply to (and win) lots of art competitions that I otherwise would not have known about. I also think the strictness level varies for each student, as every teacher I worked with were talented and kind in their own unique ways. I'll keep my review short but I can say that I'm truly grateful for everything I've learned from here and that I miss it very much! Easily the easiest 5 stars I can give to any establishment. I would give 10 if I could!

Not everyone is naturally creative, and with age, a lot of creativity is lost... But everyone can be taught to think out of the ordinary, and that is what j art has taught me. Cheers!
