I made 5 pieces my 1st class! Jennifer gives you space to learn your way without hovering, but will come by often to help if she sees you may be struggling. She has so much love for the art of pottery and it comes out in each question and skill taught. I love going to class and find I leave each time fulfilled. I've taken pottery classes in Virginia and San Francisco, but this 1-month class has been by far the most hands on of them all! The value of this class is excellent as Jennifer offers you free open studio time during the month-long course. So instead of having only 3 hours of class time this week, I've had 7 hours! I could sign up for more at no extra cost too. Jennifer is fun as well as brilliant. She and her husband Jason are well established and respected in the Pacifica small business community, so it feels good to take classes that support their mission. I highly recommend taking a class or a course here!

I spent a lot of time researching art classes in the peninsula and have tried a few others but I'm not aware of any other studio that teaches realism seriously like Jason does.

He doesn't group students strictly by age; instead, he assesses their skill level to make sure that students will be able to keep up with the rest of the group.

Our daughter is 5. She's always been very interested in puzzles, coloring/drawing, crafts, etc so I…read moreknew I wanted to enroll her in art classes. We tried a free art class here and I got to sit in the class. The teacher was very patient and taught her to first draw each line curve etc then they used oil pastels to color, next they used water paint to paint, then they used clay to make dirt. Our trial class is the excavator picture you see. We were very amazed at how much she learned in that one session. We enrolled her immediately. There are multiple make up sessions throughout the week if you need to miss your regularly scheduled class for vacation etc and option to do one on one make up class as last resort as well. We love the staff here and know she'll be in good hands and learn more of her passion here. There's multiple classes going on at the same time based on different art class levels. I've seen kids make sushi with different color clays etc and I've seen kids sketching when I'm pick up or dropping off my daughter so there's definitely lots to learn. I can see why happy Picasso is so popular around here after trying it out myself. When my daughter turns 7 and if she's interested, they also offer digital art class which will be useful for her in the future as well. Teachers here are very patient with the students. The kids also earn stamps each class and can trade them for prizes too. Very fun and motivating environment. 5 stars! And thanks.

Now that I'm working for a creative tech company, I bring the lessons and skills I've learned from Art Attack teachers over the years to my work every day. When my team decided to hold a virtual team bonding activity, I knew that we had to bring in Art Attack to facilitate. Audrey and Nancy created a joyful, creative, and engaging environment for our team, a massive feat for virtual team events. My manager was thrilled with the event, saying she "smiled the whole time." Even some of our quieter colleagues called out the session as their "favorite team activity of all time." I would 1000% recommend Art Attack for your corporate team bonding events, whether virtual or in person! Loved the energy and professionalism they brought - a bright spot to our workday.

The studio's use of bright colors, whimsical themes, and playful projects ensures that every session is a joyful and enriching experience. Whether your child is a budding artist or simply enjoys getting their hands messy, Happy Picasso is an excellent place to nurture their creativity. The studio provides a safe and supportive space for children to experiment, learn, and discover the magic of art. They are also very pretty flexible with rescheduling classes. They tried everyday to accommodate our schedule for another make up class. I like that they also have a recorded class if we can't make it in person to make up a class
