It was also really stuffy, with only one small AC unit and not enough ventilation, especially considering how many people were smoking inside. A girl actually passed out during the experience, and the instructor didn't really address it or pause the class; she just continued. If you're okay being in a hot, stuffy hotbox for three hours, then so be it but it's definitely not for me. Definitely an interesting experience ...

The exhibit is set up in an unassuming warehouse in the Garment District in DTLA The exhibit was named Encantada and set up in dimensional immersive experience. It was as close to psychedelic as you can imagine. They did offer 3D disposable glasses but I don't think it worked as it should have. Regardless, it was psychedelic as it could possibly be. Be sure you follow the hours posted on their ad because they do NOT open outside of the posted times I got wind of this exhibit from Yelper James L (LA) and since I had a trip around the time of the exhibit's showings and my travel partner was game for "whatever" Cre8 and the Encantada became part of our itinerary. No regrets about attending as I've learned of Cre8 and what they are all about.

CRE8 is a space that showcases art installations. Depending on the display, if May look like an…read moreunderground gallery, or something entirely different. For example, Currently, the art installation is Encantada, a 5D immersive experience which will run through 12/23/22. It's not fair for me to describe in details what's inside because this needs to be seen, heard and experienced in person, but I'll give you a few 'sneak peeks'. You're given 3D glasses at the door. As you make the first turn around the wall, it becomes visible how your senses be attacked. There are a lot of bright colors, sounds + music and thugs that just seem to float. The installation isn't very big. There a winding hallway leading to a larger room. There's a small room attached where you can tag the walls, contribute your own art work or leave a note. There's an upstairs lounge area that's equally 'trippy'. How long it takes you to go through it depends on how open minded you are. You can blow through it in 10 minutes, or spend almost an hour in there having fun with the endless art that seem to levitate. I can only imagine a little bit of mind altering vices may help intensify the experience. My only complaints are I hoped for the immersive experience to be bigger, and the paper 3D glasses they hand out are very cheap as they keep falling off. Other than that, we had fun in there. We went on a Sunday and there was easy street parking. Otherwise, there are meters for the weekdays. You can also check Goldstar to see if they offer discounted Tix.

When we arrived, I appreciated that there were designated parking spots for this site! Only…read moredownside was that there was trash scattered around, so it looked a little sketchy at first. To add to this, we needed to be buzzed in so we could enter the premise. Once we were inside, the ambiance changed completely and there were a couple of IG worthy spots to take pictures while checking in. We opted for the spinning art experience since my daughter is too young to partake in the more elaborate ones. Originally, we booked for 4 people but one person got sick so we asked if we could transfer the funds for that person for another experience since there are no refunds. Luckily, was able to contact them the day before and added the bunny paint pour over experience. Ozzie was our guide and he was super kind and gentle with my daughter. We were instructed to pick 5 colors and then we donned our plastic bootie covers, apron and gloves. We entered our designated art room and was blown away by all the colors on the wall. There was even a tire swing which my daughter was all about. The spinning art experience was a lot of fun and I enjoyed seeing my daughter embrace the paint. I think her favorite part was when she had free rein to paint all over the walls. Overall, we had a great time. Only down side is that it does go by super quick and is quite an expensive experience for one hour. However, we get to have a treasured memento which is ready for pick up about 5 days afterwards and we did have a great time. That being said, #noragrats!

You really learn what goes into designing a piece of jewelry- would definitely take this class again. Will have to remember to post a photo of the finished piece after I receive it!

I loved my experience at Throw Clay LA. Last year I took a 6 week class and absolutely fell in love…read morewith Clay pottery. I really loved everyone in the class, and the studio was great and let us use the studio outside of class as well. I met a ton of the members during the weekends and everyone was chill and laid back, and soooo talented! Lots of great dogs in this studio as well. I have given away a lot of my pieces as gifts (I made 16 pieces in my 6 weeks!) and everyone has loved them. It's a great heartfelt gift for anyone. I would have continued with the classes but I missed out on the next level classes, and then I moved jobs so I wasn't working in downtown as much. But I would 100% recommend this studio to anyone interested in clay pottery!

The 6 week class was such a fun way to break up the monotony of work. Both Danny from week 1 and…read moreAmber from week 2-6 were great instructors, and were approachable, comical, and incredibly helpful. Honorable mention must go to Galyn who helped me coordinate a last minute fill in to the weekend class. I really enjoyed the opportunity of open hours during the midweek to practice what you learned each week. My finished works - hideous, laughable, easily mistaken for child's work. Yet the satisfaction of applying the new knowledge and seeing the finished creations were priceless. Would say I clocked a total of 30+ hours in between the 2 hour weekend classes. The studio itself was very spacious, well laid out, and had such great vibes with members offering to help guide you and share advice. Also, it seemed like a great place to meet new people from outside circles you normally wouldn't cross paths with otherwise. Though I had taken a year of ceramics in highschool, I didn't feel any prior background experience was necessary to learn and enjoy from this class. If the goal is to produce as many works from your 10lb bag of clay - as was mine - I would say a general understanding of the timeline of firing + glazing and refiring would certainly help you stay on a good timeline.

Watching my admittedly slightly-off-center ball of clay spin on the wheel as I shaped it into a not-bad-for-a-first-time bowl was both mesmerizing & meditative. This totally made me want to sign up for a whole class series. My only slight recommendation for any change would be the seating arrangements. The stations were laid out in such a manner that there was no possibility other than to have 1 of the 5 pairs of folks that showed up for the fully-booked 10-person class to be split (not sitting next to each other).
