But wait, if you agree with me about your painting/art skills, you are in luck! Wine and Design provides you a pre-traced canvas and you know, everything else is ready when you get there too! I love the fact that everything is all organized and prepared, ready to go. Again, having a pre-traced canvas? Ah man, what a lifesaver! Just having that canvas makes me feel so confident and you know, I feel like I can paint anything! I took Apex Wine and Design's paint your pet class few weeks ago and I definitely fell in love. I got a lot of compliments from my friends and I came back to paint my other dog this time. Bethany(the best art instructor I've ever seen) and Craig, the owner of Cary studio, were there for this class and they both were so amazing. Bethany walked us thru and taught us how to paint step by step. It was easy to follow and I just loved her energy, her class was so fun! They always want to make sure you leave the class with your happy face & awesome painting. They tell us to come back if you think you need more touch up later! They just want us to have fun and enjoy the class and just knowing that they are not rushing me, that's so great and I can focus on my painting. I ended up staying a little bit late but Bethany and Craig didn't mind at all and they were being so understanding. I absolutely loved my second class just like my first one. I left the class with my happy face on and yes, my painting was so freaking awesome. I can't wait to come back and thank you Craig and Bethany again for being so awesome and patient with me!

It was supposed to start at 6 pm, but the lady waited and waited for people who didn't even end up showing up. We had to wait almost 20 mins before we could get started, and I didn't think that was a good decision for those of us who showed up on time. They included champagne in the tiniest cup. Luckily, we don't drink, so it didn't matter so much. They also gave us a tiny box of V-Day candy. It was a sweet gesture. All in all, we really enjoyed ourselves. They should put something in place that if people are late, they will need to reschedule, get a credit for future use, or forfeit their money. We shouldn't have to wait over 20 mins to get started. I recommend them. Just be sure to bring your own drinks and snacks/food.

As I forgot to get a photo when I arrived, the class was full so I couldn't get the layout too well. I will try to get a better shot next time. I'd been to the old location before the pandemic and got excited during the pandemic when to go kits were offered as we couldn't paint in person but could order a kit with canvases and paints and brushes. Then pick them up from the sidewalk. Virtual classes are offered as well so you could paint with friends and relatives all over the country if you wanted. Some classes are being taught outside under a gazebo too. I booked my class a few months out as I am still healing from a shoulder injury and thought I'd be good by July. But I managed to get another injury in the meantime. So I did my best and Bethany made the afternoon fun and was very helpful with how to hold the paintbrush to get the paint stroke desired. If you are looking for a fun activity, this is the place for you!

If you are trying to stay on budget, I definitely recommend going on a day when they offer discounted studio fees. We went on a Monday and only paid $2 for the studio fee, which was a great deal. I am not the most artistic person, but I had so much fun. It was the perfect way to celebrate and do something a little different. I would absolutely go again and tap into my very limited artistic ability lol. If you are thinking about going, I recommend making a reservation ahead of time.

I first heard about this studio from a parent of another kiddo in one of my daughter's track out…read morecamps. My interest was instantly piqued because I had been searching for art opportunities that didn't seem so basic for my young artist. Every other option (except one that pushed for full day when I wanted a half day opportunity) I had found offered for her age group before KidzArt had "cute themes" and was basically just drawing or painting on paper, nothing seemed special or specialized for that matter - I couldn't even find a class that offered basic sculpture with clay for my kindergarten kid! When I saw the course/camp offerings here, I was actually excited that this might be something that would work for my kid! There are TONS of different options for camps (both during the summer and for track out) for ages starting at 6 - the Town of Cary classes that seemed like they may draw in my child weren't available until she is 8 years old (the ones offered for her age group just seemed too basic for her abilities). I was thrilled to see that just after the studio opened and on my kiddo's track out there was an illustration and cartooning camp offered - perfect! So far, she has created a lot of great art: some in a sort of "wine an design" but for kids (without wine of course) style following the instruction of the teacher, and some free art of her own cartooning and illustration. There are many materials for the kids to experiment with here and an opportunity for free art time too. The owner and instructors are very knowledgeable about art and also work very well with the children of varying ages - they seem to genuinely care about the kids and get to know them. We also signed up for some classes here outside of the track out camp she is taking. The variety is great and my kiddo seems to find inspiration from the lessons as well as from the other kids in the class. I really wanted an opportunity for her to experiment with more materials and to learn some techniques she could apply to her own art - this studio provides exactly that! She's already learned some strategies with watercolor and shadow that have popped up in her other work (just like how after reading a specific book she will mimic the art style in her new art), and has requested time to work with clay which she hasn't ever really had a desire to do until now. She is really enjoying her experience at camp and definitely seems to be inspired by it! The studio itself is clean, open, and bright. The materials are well maintained, and it is overall a great place for young artists to grow! I'm excited to find more classes to continue to inspire my kiddo - she is also very excited to check out other themes here too!
