So many options!…read more Haven't been here in a couple years so it was nice to go back! They still don't charge a studio fee! Only the product price and sales tax! You can make a reservation online. I went with one friend and we took 2 hours. I chose the ice cream cup cause I had a cute idea to make it look like it was dripping ice cream. There were so many color options and so many stencils. The staff were friendly and helpful! I'm excited to go back!

I have been taking a beginners pottery class here for a month or so and it has been such an…read moreexceptional experience. Amy who owns the business and teaches the classes is a great teacher, an excellent potter, and has an amazing attitude. In a class like this people's pots fall, or they mess up a throw often as they learn but Amy has such an optimistic attitude and helps people come up with what purpose their new creation can serve. Amy clearly works very hard to make this a place for artists to bloom and discover themselves, which is intoxicating. The studio is well equipped and while taking a class you can come in outside of class time to throw and practice. This is a great opportunity to practice and get more wheel time outside of the two hours of class a week. They also offer painting and have lots of fun things to paint with many beautiful glazes!

I painted a colander, my niece painted a trinket tray and my kid painted a fairy sculpture. I like how organized everything was inside and how the workers explained things from the beginning in a very simple way. They host birthday parties as well. There were a lot of ceramics to choose from. They played music inside and the temperature was comfortable. It was relaxing to paint. We stayed for almost 3 hours. The bad: A lot of the detailed bottles were clogged. I was surprised there aren't napkins readily available in case there are messes/spills. I am surprised they don't offer smocks/aprons for customers. The interesting: It cost around $145 for my group of 3. There's a $8 fee on top of the cost of the item you choose.

And I am so glad it did. It was easy to request event info online and the event team was super responsive. Originally my event was for 20 people but we ended up having about 30 show up. But since we had the location to ourselves on a Monday, that number was fine. Kayla and Whitney were so great, they made sure everyone had everything they needed and kept the drinks flowing. I highly recommend partnering with Upstairs Circus for team building events team events friend events or just a fun time doing something creative. The diy projects vary in difficulty and mostly, it's something that you make and take with you. I made a gold tassel necklace and it wasn't easy but it's something that I'll have the rest of my life that I made at this event with this memory. Thank you Upstairs Circus for this experience!! Looking forward to doing it again.

What a fun and unique date night experience!…read more My girlfriend and I received a gift card to Upstairs Circus and chose to celebrate Valentine's Day crafting to our heart content. This place was a dream!! Now, I'm an experienced crafter myself, while my girlfriend is not so much, but I'm happy to say both of us were able to enjoy it. The options are a wide variety including activities for all skill levels, and the instructions are very straightforward. The bar menu was also plentiful, with a variety of signature cocktails, some limited wine selections, and even some holiday-inspired shots! I also felt like the staff all took great care of us, making sure we had a memorable experience. They continued checking on us whether to help with our crafts or to fill up our glasses, were kind and attentive. This was such a special experience!
