There was a exhibit that was being put up while we were there. There is a small gift shop where you can buy work by local artists. The receptionist on duty never welcomed us, spoke to us, or even looked up while we were there. This did not create an inviting atmosphere.

I went to my first mosaic class at Ahmed's new Art School. I've studied with him for many years and…read moream thrilled for him to realize his dream of his own school. The space was really really nice. He made it very comfortable for students, great lighting, great ergonomic stools, the right table height with extra storage underneath. There are personal cubbies to store your work and tools. Coffee, tea, soda, water, candy...it's all first class. A very motivational space to create in. There are so many beautiful colors of stained glass, stone, smalti,china to work with! Very convenient to the train. It's a pleasure to do my mosaic work in this school. Try it out!

My kids have enjoyed individual classes with Claire over the last couple years. Then recently we…read morehosted my daughter's birthday party with Claire. She had a lovely space set up outside to take advantage of the beautiful weather, all the materials ready to go, and a couple projects planned. From age 5 to 40+, all our guests had a great time creating bowls, platters, figurines and projects of their own imagination. We printed designs in the clay, rolled and shaped and stamped, then painted with underglaze. Everyone got to make multiple creations. Can't wait to see the finished projects after they're fired and glazed. As we left, several kids asked me to pass on info about Claire's classes to their parents so they can come back - a sure sign they had a great time.

I worked with Sculpture Resource on a project and was very impressed with their professionalism…read more They went above and beyond to create a small replica of the sculpture and then to build a rotating platform to capture a 360° view to photograph a real-life model for the final sculpture.

The BEST artist I have ever encountered in my life. From the moment my husband and I first called…read moreJudith, we received such kindness on the phone and we knew this was a special person who would only positively contribute to our wedding day. When we first met with her, we were even more happy as she was able to offer us great suggestions in designing our custom made ketubah. Judith is incredible! She's talented beyond belief, her ketubahs are true works of art as she puts everything into her art work and that feeling is definitely portrayed through the beauty of her pieces. She created such a beautiful masterpiece for us and we now are proud to display it at our home. I cannot even tell you guys how many compliments I have received on our piece. It is absolutely exceptional and the first time I saw it, I couldn't imagine a more perfect piece symoblizing the relationship between my husband and I. If you want a perfect, unique, exceptional and mostly custom made art work done by a special person, choose Judith Joseph. The colors turned out unbelievable as she uses a special kind of paint in her work made out of egg yolk I believe. From all our wedding "vendors" we could not be happier with the work that Judith did for us that we will have as a lasting memory for the rest of our lives. We actually look forward to working with Judith again in the future for a different type of art work.

I searched all over the North Shore, Chicago and even Sun Valley, Idaho for the perfect painting for my family room. And finally I found it here. It was perfect and also priced fairly. Unlike other gallery owners Michael wasn't willing to negotiate at all on price, but he did hang it for me. Months later I purchased 4 paintings from a local artist and stopped back in to get 3 of them framed by Michael. He took about 2 weeks to frame them and did a beautiful job...and once again hung them and another painting for me. I love supporting local and Michael is a lovely man with gorgeous artwork and impeccable framing/hanging skills so look forward to being a longtime customer.
