They had so many works of art on the walls to help with inspiration. The price was very reasonable considering you get a lesson, an hour to make your glass piece, and you get to go home with an original piece of art. I highly recommend taking a class and I look forward to doing this again!! Whether you're looking for a rainy day activity, need some time for yourself, or need to get some creative juices flowing, this art studio is the place to go!

Using completely different materials and techniques was a great learning experience. If you make a charcuterie board tiny glitter is available to enhance your piece. Two of my fellow participants added it to their handiwork, and it really enhanced their pieces. Must pick up the next day so factor that into your plans. I considered doing a crushed glass piece too but it seemed beyond my creative skills. Some of the crushed glass pieces are easier than others. Separately, they had some commissioned work being done and the skills of the staff are simply amazing. Would definitely try this again. Well worth the cost.

We were able to make a reservation just the day before online, but this availability may vary during more peak seasons. We were there during the shoulder season. The kids class (Shard Shop Original Art Class) is really reasonably priced and they had a blast creating their own piece of art! Strange, but their only other location is in New Orleans. We showed up on time for our appointment and did not feel rushed. There was one party leaving and another party was there with us, so my kids had their own table full of supplies. They have sample you can base your art off of, or you can freestyle it. Everything was included! Note that it takes a little over 24 hours for your art to cure so don't plan this the day before or the day you are leaving the area. They can always mail it to you, but there is a cost associated and it's more fun to pick it up yourself.

After a visit to the gallery this summer, my friends flew back for a two day oil painting class this fall. Kathleen did a demo of a floral set up before lunch, then we did our own paintings in the afternoon. We already know how to paint but she introduced us to her unique style and was very helpful. We did bring our own supplies as she gives you a list of what will be needed. She might have classes for beginners, would just need to ask.

Brit (the owner) was our instructor and she taught us all the best little tips and tricks she could during our class. We were the only 2 signed up for this particular class so it felt even more intimate and fun having it be like our own personal studio. I came in with a vision of exactly what I wanted; bowl with scalloped edges that I can display on my living room table. Brit helped absolutely bring that vision to life! Like exactly how I imagined, it's perfect! My husband made a big coffee mug/beer mug (depending on the time of day) that he is so proud of. Brit made our anniversary special and helped us make a long lasting gift that we will cherish for years to come. So if you're a local, a transplant, or a tourist, take all your glass blowing, fusing, or framework ideas and book a class here you will not regret it! 10/10 recommend!

First you grab a shirt, then you grab a tray, then you figure out which art project you want to do. Once that's done, you go to the counter and tell the girl. She gets you all set up with your canvas, your paints and your instructions! They have a drying station so that you can dry your art in between the different stages. I would highly recommend and I would go back in a heartbeat! I think our total for 2 paintings was $54, so it's not a terrible price when you consider how much you have to work with! It's perfect for anyone who enjoys crafting and painting! Oh and they have take-home kits. Take home kits were $28 each but you get everything in them!

We came on a Monday morning not knowing it would be crowded and were quoted a 45-60 minute wait. The art studio is upstairs and there is only space for a handful of families to be up there at a time. We got on the list and waited until it was our turn to go upstairs. It did end up being about that long. The staff here were super friendly and helpful with explaining everything. They provide smocks to wear and all of the supplies you need. They have a variety of projects to pick from. The price range of the projects seems to be about $10-$35 dollars. My son we had do the cheapest one because I knew he wouldn't take it very seriously and was just trying to occupy him. I let my daughter do one of the small canvases which I believe were $28 because I knew she would take it seriously. She picked the unicorn canvas and loved doing it. They give you the instructions on how to do the project and things to trace so it is easier for the younger kids. She loved it and my kids were entertained for over an hour. I would defintley come again and I know my daughter already wants to come back.

Curate regularly has guest artists who are creating in the gallery and available to talk to patrons about their creative process and their art. I am normally invited, and I love digging deep into the "how" of the creative process. What is the inspiration? What is the artist's sequence as they create? That excites me. Nestled along Main Street in European feeling Rosemary Beach, Curate 30A is quite special and a place you will find high quality art, unlike so many places that sell what I call junk art. It's for the discriminating buyer! "A curator's job does not involve wizardry, but requires a wealth of experience and knowledge, responsibility, and a good overview of artistic developments. But if we are lucky, we curators still manage to enchant visitors with the results." ~René Block and Carin Kuoni, Words of Wisdom: A Curator's Vade Mecum
