HELLO, My name is…read moreDoyle, I am with www.doylepottery.com which is another art teaching place in mobile al I teach mainly ceramics and have plans to expand to multiple locations. I welcome any students in ceramic art. One of the teachers from coastal makers took my class and made one of the nicest beginner ceramics sculptures I've seen in many many years. Recently they began expanding to ceramics also using my kiln at times. I recommend if you enjoyed ceramics at coastal, to also visit Doyle Pottery for advanced ceramics classes. I recommend going to coastal makers, the staff there is very talented. They offer a very broad variety of art classes which is awesome for the growing demand in the area and for the whole art community. Thanks Coastal Makers for creating fun art activities to broaden understanding of what goes into all that art for sale in the galleries around the world, and all the cool ARTWORK! that gets produced by all the staff and students! A real art community! Thanks! WE NEED MORE!

This demand is set to increase more and more as robots take over lots of jobs. Kari, in the next fifteen years, we have to somehow teach 20,000 people a month and even more once those have gotten involved, that what's missing today in schools and centers from a full research evaluation with robots. We should see Art some day perform like energy itself due to present robot/computer technology in development like a cell phone never having been made yet but now in process. Doyle is seeking any help out there that would especially like to work before and afterschool programs, and have availability those times. There is vast expansion possibility due to extreme school demand for ceramics, mostly from its costly infrastructure. What's the greatest part for teachers in town is there's many many positions possible today including their assistants! And a market for teaching unmet demand value at... 45 million a year Kari. If you loved Kari's class and made great stuff, call Doyle to help him tackle the huge current demand at schools primarily, if you are available and enjoy the Arts and creating. What you get from Art activity at Coastal is not just Art and fun, you get an education and learn to develop your brain with, "creativity" the best part of any brain which, happily, no robot can take away. Thank you all for enjoying and taking interest in the ARTS! Happy Art making! Doyle

I was happy to know my grandson was starting daycare and I am not happy with his care at the moment.read more

This daycare on numerous occasions did not change our child's diaper for an entire day. Its very…read moreobvious because they use different style diapers, and we picked him up in the same diaper we dropped him off in. On one occasion, we picked our child up in the afternoon and his diaper was full of dried poop that had been sitting in there for who knows how long. His skin was bright pink and he screamed in pain as we wiped off the poop from his raw skin. We spoke with the director who promised it would not happen again, yet it did. We have emails documenting everything. To make it worse, after we removed our child from the program, we requested a refund since we had already paid for the month. The director agreed to refund us. We have yet to receive a refund after asking multiple times. Probably wouldn't even be writing this if we received our refund as promised. I hope they can improve, we did like most of the staff!

On the small side. About two dozen or so vendors selling goods and wares, several food trucks, and several informational booths with wildlife conservation information. It was all quite lovely.

It was mid Oct still warm would have expected the birds out feeding in the marsh area. There were some smaller birds about a dozen off in the distance. Did see a cool raccoon in a hallowed out tree. Few squirrels running around and some butterflies. The building area is nice, good hands on stuff for the kids and some tanks with snakes, turtles, etc. Overall, I wouldn't come back. It peaceful and nice to set and look for birds, but guess I'm used to S FL. If this was down home the place would have been full of birds and other wildlife. If you have kids and looking for something to do stop end otherwise if you're birding find a better spot.
