We came a long way to a week-long event and we stayed in Harrisonburg both on the way and on the way back (halfway). I had found the store through Yelp and was eager to visit. We missed the business hours the first trip and got there at 4:50 on the way back. The clerk was so kind to stay open nearly an hour longer so the five of us could shop and see the art and studios. (All of us are artists). She was more than gracious! I'm in a power wheelchair which got caught on the rug at the check out and she was completely unfazed and kind about me thrashing about, causing her to move many things. The prices were a bit steep on many things but that didn't stop me from buying a lot of goodies I've searched for a long time. I left very happy, and so did my companions! We will all gladly go again next year if not before!

My husband and I ended up in Harrisonburg, VA for our 10th wedding anniversary (because we had…read moreclearly planned nothing else - I kid). I last-minute booked us at a surprisingly charming bed and breakfast, and my husband, being the man he is, and demonstrating the reason we're still married, scouted the town and lighted upon this establishment to further our wedded bliss. His plan: I pick a scenic photo, he picks a scenic photo, then we paint one another's selection as a gift. He practically had to drag me there. I know. I'm a jerk, and I do not deserve him. But I've been to these paint-and-take places before, and the thought of going back felt like a waste of time. Wrong! This place is rad! Quite simply put. It isn't your average painting pottery joint. We chose canvases, but there's so much more! Wanna spin the pottery you eventually paint? Wanna get crazy and melt some artsy glass together? Your host, Seth Rogen (I'm sorry, I forgot his name, but he is 100% related to Seth Rogen), will affably guide you through your creative experience, and offer you an adult beverage while you're at it! If you're visiting Harrisonburg, make this a stop. And if you live in Harrisonburg, you lucky ducks!
