I went to the pottery place with my kids and my two good friends and their kids. It was a Sunday,…read morethere were 10 of us, and the pottery place was very busy. They don't accept reservations, but their website claims they can seat 70, so we figured they could handle us. We even stated that we would prefer to be broken up into two tables, as this seemed more manageable for everyone. The manager said OK , and that we would be put on the waitlist. We waited patiently, browsing the selection and chatting amongst ourselves, trying to stay out of the way. When it was our turn to be seated, we were ushered to an eight person table. I addressed my concerns that there wouldn't be enough room for all 10 of us, and reiterated we were told we'd have two tables. They refused to honor that agreement. The extra seats that were pulled up for us did not fit the height of the table and I wasn't able to fit my legs underneath. I decided since I did not have proper accommodations, I would not purchase a piece to paint. I was really looking forward to painting something to give as a birthday present, and had planned on spending a good amount of money!! (I paid over $60 for my children to paint a mug and a 3 inch gnome.) We noticed that two tables remained available on either side of us for a while. We politely asked if we could use one of them and we were told no they were reserved. Nobody ever sat at one of them, and at no point for the remainder of our time there were there any less than two available tables in the room, just sitting there empty. I was upset by this experience. I was not friendly when settling up and paying at the end because I believed I was being treated poorly. I don't have to make eye contact and smile, and certainly couldn't find it in me to do so. I wrote a Yelp and a Google review when I got home. The following day I received a phone call from that same manager. She got my phone number off of my pick up information that I provided at the shop and called me at home, unsolicited. She gaslit me, made false accusations, and was defensive and argumentative. I certainly didn't write a review as an invitation for her to call and harass me. I wrote a review to alert other potential customers about a problem that was unresolved by the management of this business. They had the ability to accommodate us and went out of their way not to. We expressed that we were not satisfied, and they refused to make any effort. When I expressed my experience in my reviews, they contacted me to argue about it. Though I wish I had never been to the pottery place, I know there are plenty of other places I enjoy going, where I am treated well.

He used to go to Art Creations sometimes so I thought I'd stop in while doing my weekly stroll through the neighborhood. I was pleasantly surprised that the store wasn't freezing on this cold winter day. The store is on the smaller side but not tiny. I briefly mentioned to the manager working why I stopped in and he replied that he had my Dad as a professor. A reoccurring response that brings me extra joy in my hometown. Art Creations is a well supplied store of artist supplies for drawing, painting, etching, and other visual artist mediums. Each section of the walls is lined with colorful, reliable, and unique options. Each store section is clearly labeled. Besides different types of paints, inks, and brushes, they have different types and sizes of canvas as well as handmade papers. They also have really cool pens, journals, and blank card sets. The staff are friendly and willing to answer any questions. I was curious what artist created the blank card sets I was looking at. This store supports any creative mind's interests.

It's so rare that anyone in retail even smiles anymore. I was blown away at his great attitude about being busy. He was so polite. I am a regular at this location for a reason.

I noticed there are some art work for sale of local tourist points like the bridges down town Chattanooga and etc. Also, he showed me work from local artists on display. You can take your pictures or oil paintings here and they will put them in a frame for you. There is also a pottery store next door but they were closed at the time I was visiting this art gallery.
