We were able to attend for a free even in conjunction with Modist, featuring THC vendors, and even though I an not someone who enjoys THC, the vendors had lots of "N/A" options (pictured) and I enjoyed seeing the space. I can see why it is a popular venue for parties.

On the first floor there were various vendors selling wood decor, jewelry, body and skin care, candles and even pastries. On the second floor even more vendors along with a tarot reader. The space wasn't too packed so we weren't bumping into other people. Elevators and stairs easily marked and accessible. The only downside is this building is located downtown there was a parking lot next to the building but it was small and filled up. Street parking is available to pay but it's free after 6pm but it fill up quickly so you may have to walk about a block like we did.

College campuses are often so difficult to find parking that doesn't require some special tag. Nice perk to have open parking. I entered in gate 4 off Fairview and parked in the big lot. Had a 2 block walk to the auditorium entrance. It was open seating and I found a spot near the front. The stage is large and dark so speakers and slides were easy to see. Audio worked well but the slides kept blinking and and off so something was off with the visual aids. It was a nice place to hold a lecture and the speaker was outstanding! St Kate's staff did a wonderful job facilitating as well.

Even my hubby (a big kid) was shooting hoops. My young son of 4 was loving the green, purple and blue playground.

Even a spot for a parent to chill with some snacks or a beverage while their kid is running around. Rules...no food or beverage while playing and no shoes.

Our son had a blast. There is plenty of playground equipment to climb on and over. There is a basketball court area as well as a soccer area with fake turf. There is also one of those bouncy pads for kids to toss themselves around on. There is also a separate play area for kids 2 and under, which is good, so you don't have to worry as much about them getting trampled. There is also an area with tables and chairs so you can bring in food and eat, take a break, or sit and read while your kids burn some calories.

When you arrive in the lobby, you are greeted by a staff member. You are provided a hair cap, shoe cover, googles, and a full body white suit to cover. Depending on your choices of canvas and amount of paint, price will vary. We had a one hour time slot for our group in which a friend head reserved in advance since we had 7 people in the group. They do provide a box for you to put your wet canvas in and take home. Overall it's a great and fun experience! I've been here 3 times already and would recommend for birthdays and group activities!

There was ample parking and once inside it was surprisingly larger than it looked from the outside. Once inside, the esthetic was quite nice, very spacious with an easy flow. There was a second story with a staircase that was strategically located within the hall that could only truly be appreciated as the bride (looking absolutely stunning) was being presented to her groom, descended the staircase. Once again the space was perfect, I am so glad to have been a witness. I said all that to say the Hutton House was a wonderful addition to this love story. Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Johnson!

My little one was only 10 months old visiting here and he had plenty of toys to explore. There are several themed rooms to play between like a grocery store, post office, cabin, lake and even a separate infant are. There's also an actual cafe that makes coffee and sells sensory kits for $25. This area also has tables and high chairs where the kids can eat (they don't sell food themselves). Don't be fooled- the entry fee is for the little ones AND you. In my case, I came with my partner and we paid almost $20 for the three of us and a chai latte. This admission is good for two hours. I'd still go back because of how easy it is to have so many different things for the little one to do.

We took our shoes and jackets off at the front, and then went to go check-in. I was asked if I had ever been there before, which I said no and then I scanned a QR code to sign the waiver for my kiddos. I would say overall, this was a pretty fun experience. You are given two hours to play for admission. I think the admission is pretty expensive, especially for babies. My 7-year old had a fun time, though. She enjoyed playing in the different areas. She ended up getting a mini scoop of ice cream, which was about $6. I would have gotten coffee, but I think the food prices were pretty expensive. Overall, I think one and done for us. We enjoyed the experience, but I took two stars off for how bare it was and for the expensive prices.
