It has been a long time since my kids attending the Creative Clubhouse, because they are older now…read more But I was just looking up the phone number as I was referring a friend, and I saw that there was only 1 review and it was 3 stars, so I wanted to give another perspective. We LOVE the Creative Clubhouse. My 4th grade son still talks with great joy and fondness about his Kindergarten Enrichment days at the Clubhouse. The program was very robust and warm and well, creative. They went on field trips to parks and museums, they crafted, they studied, they built, they cooked, they hiked, they played, they made music, they really did it all. The staff was very intelligent and caring and the kids felt like they were all family within a very short time because of how the program was run and the activities that they did. It was totally enriching and fabulous and I wish I still lived close by so that our younger child could have that same amazing experience to round out the half day kindergarten that the district provides. I highly recommend!

My daughter was there for a three day, day camp. The inside looked nice and clean from when i…read moredropped my her off. I didn't get to tour the place, I was running late. The teacher that was there introduced herself and made me feel at ease for being a little late. Sadly She missed a day on my account. So I am not sure if the kids got to do their exploring and make art from what they found outside, the day she was out. She didn't have anything made from using objects from outside. That was the description of the camp activity. When I picked her up on her last day, there was a second teacher there waiting there. That teacher wasn't very warming when I was there and did not introduce herself. Though this same teacher was nice when my husband was there. So I guess I can't hold It against her. It felt like more like a normal daycare then summer camp. I wasn't looking for a daycare service. Unfortunately she will not be attending again.

I enrolled my child in a wheel throwing class, hoping for a fun and creative learning experience,…read morebut it turned out to be a disaster. The class was integrated with children with special needs, which I fully support and appreciate (especially since I have worked with special needs children for years). However, the teacher was completely unable to manage the diverse needs of the group. My daughter told me that one child was drinking the clay water, another child had her phone in her mouth the whole time and she child was left ignored and disengaged. Sadly, both her and a friend (who felt the same way) only attended two classes making it a complete waste of money. I spoke with someone who said they would speak with the teacher and call me back but I never received a call. The lack of communication was also terrible. I was so surprised by this after reading such positive reviews.

I have seen and heard about Merritt Gallery since I moved to the area about year ago, but this was…read moremy first time going inside. It is an impressive, contemporary space with a very wide selection of art including wall and free-standing sculpture. When asked for prices the range was quite wide from $900 to $50,000 (yes, $50k). Given some of the pieces displayed and artists represented I imagine that range goes well beyond $50k as names like Picasso, Matisse, and Warhol come up on their website. The gallery has three locations and represents around 175 artists meaning that what you see in store is only a very small sampling of their actual collection. Though I always am looking for new pieces for my collection, today I went in to have a small print framed. Caitlin, one of their consultants, ably showed me an incredible selection of frames ranging from contemporary to hand-carved, hand-detailed wooden frames worthy of the Louvre and works of art in and of themselves. Having chosen to forgo a mat (not needed with this piece) and a fairly simple thin frame, the price caught me off guard: $216. While the financial part of my brain said "no!" the artistic side said "give it a try." I paid the fee and was told my print would be ready in about two weeks. Caitlin offered to have it delivered to me and installed which I may take them up on. Conclusions: Merritt is a great gallery and framing shop. The price lowers my rating to 4.5 stars (I'm a budget conscious art collector). The only issue I had was when Caitlin and I went upstairs to figure out my invoice she left my print exposed on a framing table. I didn't think much about it till I had left, but I wonder when/if someone went down and secured the print from damage. This lowers my ranking to 4 stars. Otherwise a good experience.
