My mom and I went to make art for my birthday and we had a blast. Projects range from about…read more$50-120. At first I thought it was a little pricey, but they make art so easy, have all the supplies, and offer so much support, so I think it was worth it. The sticker stencils were fun to work with. They helped a lot with the projects, but probably means there is a little less room for customization that isn't super clear when you're signing up for the class. We went on a Thursday evening and it was just the two of us. The owner and one other employee were there. We got so much personalized attention, the projects were cute, we learned a bunch, and they gave us options for each part of us doing it or them supporting us with it. There were tons of cute examples in the shop for inspiration and for purchase. The playlist was fun and the ambiance was cute. Perfect place for a party. I hope to be back.

In the class, you create your very own masterpiece in a fun and interactive setting. The night starts with an in-depth demonstration on the potter's wheel, then you (and a partner, family, friends) get hands-on shaping and forming your own work of art. The best part? It's super affordable, and they provide wine, nonalcoholic beverages, and snacks! If you're looking for a creative date night or just a fun way to unwind, this is it. Full . It's a very erotic and relaxing class. I definitely want to go back !

Took a pottery class here after years of wanting to try my hand at it. As a kid I loved clay and…read moreplay dough and yes it's not the same of course but I thought the impulse was in the right place. Anyway, I've never sat at a pottery wheel before but thanks to the incredible instruction facilitated by the small class size and the relaxed atmosphere I had a blast. And, bonus, my creations turned out pretty great, too! We'll see how they turn out after the firing and glazes. I had so much fun and was so encouraged by the experience I'm considering a membership to explore the hobby further. At the least I'll be taking more classes. Highly recommend the classes and studio to anyone and everyone. I'm the beginningest beginner possible and I couldn't have had a better time.

The times we've gone, it's been pretty chill and quiet with only a few other groups painting. There's light background music playing. The owner is friendly, helpful, and accommodating when making reservations or picking colors for your masterpiece. There are about 8 tables inside and one outside that you could paint at. The place setting is put out for you (palette tile, sponge, water) and you get to choose the brushes and paint colors that you'd like to use. There are shelves with various types of items you can paint (bowls, cups, pencil holders, figurines, vases, and the list goes on). There are also examples provided on the shelves to provide you with inspiration. Typically, you pick up the item within a week.

This is a great addition to the Kensington community near the neighboring Antique Village…read more It occupies the entire building next to the post office, and has a large parking lot in the rear (with a few spots reserved for the dental practice). It's a unique art school combined with artists' workshops on three levels. They offer an array of classes for artists and for novice looking for a fun hobby. The classes posted that I saw were for drawing,painting, and live model drawing. Some studio rooms were quite small, while other room were larger for classes/workshops. I came for the grand opening celebration. The founder's young son was greeting people at the door and giving a well rehearsed explanation of all they had to offer. I was impressed. It was quite fun going in all the rooms and meeting some of the artists. I hope to visit again soon... maybe partake in a class one day.

Kathy is an excellent teacher, putting everyone at ease and reassuring those of us with limited creative impulses.

I had some hesitation going in and my resulting product looks more like a sea urchin than a wave but I will definitely return for future classes.

Came here to play the Monopoly themed escape room. There were 5 of us in our group for the room…read more I would say this room was very hard. I've done escape rooms with myself and another person, 3 people, and 8 people. This was a struggle. It was fun once we realized what a clue was for. But honestly the clues weren't obvious sometimes for what the clue went to. A few things in our room were malfunctioning during our time, which caused us to think the answer or solution we did was wrong. This caused us to waste time. At one point, we were asking for help. A different game master came on to help. Then it switched back to our game master but we had to repeat our question to get help. It was fun in the end but the clues felt like they weren't obvious to help us get to the solution or the next clue. There were also several objectives in the room that took all 5 of us at once. Some parts we could have used another person or two.
