The staff is arrogant and unprofessional. Their processes & policies are ridiculous and require a knowledge of international systems that they expect a customer to have. Their clay matts were dirty so other people scraps got into our clay. The demo showed only half of the project that we were told we wouldn't have time to finish anyway.

So excited to review one of my favourite creative spots in Calgary…read more 4cats studio offers painting, pottery, polymer clay sculpting, and other arts classes for adults, family, and children. We have done a polymer clay class and a ice cream bowl(pottery)class. Both were super enjoyable and their staff were amazing. I found that the small classes they offer are very informative, fun-filled, and affordable. They do 2 for 1 class deals which are such a good price for what you learn and you get to take home the product you make. When I was last there, which was when I did the pottery bowl class with my husband - I was pregnant and I was seriously excited for my baby to come out as soon as possible so she can start growing up and participating in these art classes. That's how much we liked being there! If you are in a rush, but want to do some art stuff at home, you can pop in and grab some of their polymer clay kits which are super cute and easy to make. I definitely recommend 4cats to everyone who is looking for some creative outlet, but dont want to spend a ton of money for in depth art classes.

For our date night, we decided to try out the " Eat, Drink, Listen to music and paint in black…read morelight " night. We absolutely loved it! The Raw Canvas is a place that offers a free, non-judgmental environment where even people, who don't consider themselves artists or creative, can create something by themselves and be proud of their work. It was such a relaxing experience and a fun date night. We definitely recommend to try it out with your date, friends or whoever you want to spend a fun night with!

I took a 9 week "pottery basics" class learning to throw on a pottery wheel. Jane was an awesome instructor, offering a lot of hands on advice. Great place to go to let out any creative energy, or just to get out of the house. Nine 2.5 hour classes for just over $200 including materials and clay firing/glazing, its a pretty good deal! Plus, I now have a selection of awkward coffee mugs as souvenirs! They also offer a lot of other classes, such as improve, drama, painting, and open studio. Cute facility with great staff.

The North Mount Pleasant Arts Centre is where I was first discovered... okay it was me discovering…read moremy own enjoyment of painting. I had just moved to Calgary and was looking for something to wile away the hours, so I signed up for a beginners art class through the city. Lucky for me, The NMPAC (they don't call it that - or maybe they do - but I don't really want to type it out again) just happened to be down the street. It was perfect. This place is called an "Arts Centre" for a reason. They've got the facilities to host a plethora of classes from painting to sculpting to pottery. I quite enjoyed when break time came in my evening class and I got to wander the halls a bit and poke my head in to see what other classes were doing or take a look at the more recent projects hanging on the walls. It almost felt like elementary school in that sense... just as fun, but with a bit more skill. Reminiscing has me wanting to take another class soon... time to peruse the fall/winter schedule.

Needless to say she was over the moon excited and couldn't wait for summer camp. It was also her first ALL day camp. She loved it. By the end of her camp week the amount of art work she had compiled to bring home was mind boggling. Everyone there was super nice & friendly and she was at ease immediately. Parking and drop off was also easy. I'm pretty confident we will be back here for more summer camps and then some! Really great place!

Their calendar online shows which painting you will paint that night. We went early for a glass of wine and they had really nice appies! Charcuterie board, flat bread were perfect. We went as a double date and I think our husbands liked it more than we did! A few other couples and a great place for a girls night! I think my mom would love this, I want to take her! Once you get seated, the instructor guides you through the painting step by step, but allows you to add your personal touch to it. Honestly it was a blast and I'm not an artist whatsoever. I liked that they played good tunes while you painted. We had so much fun tonite we definitely will go back for another date night!

I've been a customer at Muk-luks since I moved to Airdrie three years ago. I can't say enough good…read morethings about this place. The owners and staff are so incredibly nice and helpful. The store supports local artists and gives them a place to sell their creations and there is some really nice stuff there - and at good prices too. Being a stained glass studio, they also offer classes on all kinds of glass art and having taken some classes, I really enjoyed the experience and learned how to make all kinds of beautiful things. They also have studio space available to members. Membership is great as you get a discount on supplies, classes and consignment fees. I enjoy going there whether it be to work on a project or just drop by for a visit. This place is one of Airdrie's hidden gems. You really should check it out.
