Stephanie, the proprietor, was warm, friendly, and helpful. The hours were plentiful and convenient. Serendipity moved to a larger location. Since the move, Serendipity is no longer an inviting place to paint. It does not have regular nor convenient operating hours. Phone calls and messages do not get returned. It is no longer an enjoyable place. This saddens me. I will not be going back. I hope Stephanie can get her act together, before she looses her business. Kate Brown

The birthday girl was over the moon with excitement.

Also, the students are very interesting and enjoyable people among whom I have made some very nice friends. I couldn't recommend Hands In Clay more highly!

In addition, the studio may be used by potters in what is called Open Studio. The third option is use of the pottery studio facility by the hour. I have taken pottery through the years at various locations and from a variety of teaching potters, but none can match the teaching skills of Karin Burt. In just two class sessions, I learned the reasons behind pottery techniques that I had not known before. All I can say is Karin is an exceptional, patient and talented educator. Karin is an artist in her own right, whose distinctive pottery pieces can be seen in the New Orleans Museum of Art (NOMA) Gift Shop (in historic City Park) the gift shop of NOCCA (New Orleans Center for the Creative Arts) Gallery and the Press Street Cafe (both located in the Bywater neighborhood of New Orleans.
