That's the key to keeping students encouraged, engaged, and eager to explore. Museo offers exactly that. The ability to pause enrollment or transfer from one class to another allows us as a family to explore what is working and what isn't for our kiddos at any given stage in their artistic journey.

They absolutely love all of the different types of courses and I appreciate the ability to send kids on a non-school day! The teachers are great -- super supportive and encouraging of creativity etc. Give Museo a try if you haven't!

Absolutely love, love, love the Crimson Canvas Arts summer camps!…read moreMy son first attended the clay art camp summer 2019, and it was honestly the highlight of our day. He would talk about it prior and then for the rest of the day after pick up. It's just so fun and the art work is beautiful. My son also made some wonderful friends that we still have play dates to this day. Can't wait for another summer of clay camp:)

She started out first with in person classes through the school and has been doing online classes for the last year. She loves the art classes and always has great artwork to show us.

The technical teaching was fine, however, the teacher knows best attitude was cloaked in disingenuous "lessons" meant to teach them how the real world of music works.

In addition to playing drums he sang one of the songs at his concert and it did wonders for his confidence. Connor is an amazing instructor and so is Matt. Chad and his staff are extremely helpful and patient. The environment is interactive and hands on, kids are playing instruments day one. Extremely sad we moved or we'd still be there!

This was great. I took this class with a group of 7 other students & really enjoyed my time…read more Turns out pottery is NOT EASY. The instructor was patient, kind, and very helpful. One thing I would recommend is a large display/cards on tables with step by step instructions. I am a "do" learner, so hearing the instructions was helpful but a visual aid would be nice. Overall, a great time!!! For anyone interested in this as a hobby, the mental game is real. You aren't just centering the clay - you are learning to center yourself. Follow the teacher's lead - be kind & patient to yourself, too.

The selection was very interesting. The glass is all locally produced right there in their own hot shop. There were some very creative pieces. The most creative pieces were the most expensive, however there were plenty of pieces that were not too expensive. Robin the owner was fabulous and explained how my art piece was made. Since the hot shop is adjacent to the gallery, you can watch the artists make the glass art. It is very interesting and there are some beautiful pieces.

I thought there would be multiple people in the class, but it ended up just being the two of us and the instructor. He got to create three glass pumpkins and they turned out amazing! Definitely worth trying if you are looking to try something new/fun. Gift shop has some cool stuff in it as well.

I have studied at Chopin Academy for 5 years. Compared to the other places I studied from in the…read morepast, I can honestly say that this school has given me the best experience. The school itself is very well-kept, and there are many studios with nice pianos. The restrooms are clean and stocked, and the main room is very classy and comfortable for waiting before lessons. All of the instructors that I have met are professional and knowledgeable. The directors are kind and want all of the students in the academy to succeed. My teacher Ms. Tsirkel especially changed the way I felt about piano. She has grown to be a big role model to me, and her skill as a brilliant pianist, along with her gentle way of teaching has caused me to love piano and appreciate classical music.

He is very detail oriented, and make sure every single note sounds beautifully. Ross has great personality, taking classes with him is really fun.

She cares about all her students and she will recommend teachers based on your needs and personality. Very appreciated on that as well. Highly recommend this place!

After all, art is to be appreciated. The owner is very friendly and invites you to view the art at your leisure. This gallery is the exclusive distributor for Dr. Seuss's art, wall arts and sculptures. Also look for the 3D resin painted koi fishes in the back. We were informed that the featured artist is rotated monthly. I look forward to enjoying a new viewing each month. The location is quite near the waterfront, where the 3D shop was. Before your dinner in Kirkland downtown, be sure to drop by for a visit. Art is good for the soul and the appetite. :)
