Went to PWAT with a group of friends and had the best time! Our instructor, Eileen/Blitz was…read moreenergetic and supportive and gave great instructions that made it easy to follow along. Everyone left with a unique picture and a fun memory. Looking forward to coming back with my boyfriend!

The owner of this business was incredibly rude, insensitive, and completely lacking in compassion…read more The only reason my group decided to stay and paint was because of the instructor, Jake, who was kind and professional throughout the situation. When I initially had to reschedule our appointment, I explained that I was undergoing breast cancer treatment and had received a double dose of chemotherapy a couple of days before. The treatment had taken a serious toll on my body, and I simply was not well enough to attend. Although the owner was snippy with me at the time, she ultimately agreed to the rescheduling. I thanked her and confirmed that the six people who had already paid would attend on the new date. On the rescheduled date, I unfortunately had to call again and ask for understanding because of another unexpected situation. My best friend, who was supposed to attend with us, had to be rushed to the emergency room. I was completely transparent with the employee who answered the phone and explained that I had previously needed to reschedule because of my chemotherapy. The employee spoke with the owner, and I was told that the owner authorized all SIX of us to come and paint on August 11. I expressed my apologies and gratitude. When we arrived to paint, the owner told the instructor that only three people would be allowed to paint. I then spoke with the owner directly, and she told me that she would only honor three painters and claimed that this information had been sent to me by email. I explained that, just as I had told her employee, I had recently undergone chemotherapy and did not have the opportunity to constantly check my email. I had also been traveling to New York to be with my sisters during this difficult time. Her employee had told me that she understood the circumstances and that everything was confirmed for six people on August 11. Instead of showing even a small amount of compassion or attempting to resolve the misunderstanding, the owner was extremely rude and disrespectful. She interrupted me, told me that she did not care about what I had discussed with her employee, and essentially dismissed everything I was saying. She also told me that although she would honor the three painters, I should not think about coming back to her business. I have never been treated so poorly by a business owner, especially after being completely honest about what I was going through. I understand that businesses have policies, but there is a huge difference between enforcing a policy and treating a customer with cruelty and disrespect. The owner's behavior was completely unacceptable. I sincerely hope she learns that compassion, communication, and basic courtesy matter--especially when someone is going through an extremely difficult time.
