It is a great place to shop for a gift for the friend who has pretty much everything. There are food items such as honey, salt, pepper mills, etc. A wide variety of goat soaps are on display. There are desk items, kitchen items, pet supplies, and novelty items. I picked up a glass bottle with colorful candle/fireplace matches for my candle loving daughter and a bag of peanut butter dog treats for the pups.

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.
