They exposed our brains to different ways of creating art with using beautiful metallic acrylic paints & watercolors, different brushes, tools, nature and just let it go with the flow. Art with no rules using the senses of feeling and touch, painting with our toes and eyes closed allowing whatever to flow on mural, texture or smooth paper expressing emotions that words cannot and connecting with others to heal on so many levels. Cant wait for the next art class here Many Blessings, Adrea

I started coming here because I knew one artist had moved here. Over various visits, I have met other artists and have prints from several of them. While most of the artists have art prints, I have to mention the space shuttle photos from Blue Planet on the wall behind the cash register. I am a bit of space geek and have shot various launches from the public viewing areas. Ann spent 20+ years working on the shuttle program and her photos of the Shuttle show a great eye for art combined with amazing access. If you are looking for space shuttle photos, this is the place to go.

The Eau Gallie Arts District is a cool part of Melbourne, Florida to spend a bit of time…read more There are murals and cool shops. There are also cool restaurants and bars, as well. In my opinion, a townor city needs to have a neighborhood with a funky, eclectic soul like this particular neighborhood. If you find yourself in Melbourne, Florida, I would definitely recommend checking out the Eau Gallie Arts District.

Eau Gallie is a historic Florida settlement in what is now Melbourne. This area of Florida is known…read moreas the Space Coast. The first settlement in Eau Gallie was established in 1859 when John C. Houston received an 80-acre homestead on the north shore of the Eau Gallie River. In the late1800's the area had thriving pineapple plantations and land was selling for $1,000 an acre until the freeze of 1894-95 which killed off the pineapple crops. The Eau Gallie Arts District is known as EGAD. It is a Florida Main Street program created to bring revitalization to the historic downtown Eau Gallie area by adding murals to the buildings. In November 2017, 19 murals were added to the downtown creating an outdoor art museum. The murals are part of the Anti-Gravity Project aimed to "elevate outdoor spaces, generate positive community energy, and showcase the EGAD as the growing epicenter of innovation on the Space Coast." The historic district includes the Historic Rossetter House Museum and Gardens, the Eau Gallie Public Library, Pineapple Park and restaurants, galleries, and shops. FM Pizza and Joan's Perfect Pies are two businesses you don't want to miss. The Eau Gallie Arts District hosts various events throughout the year. One of the most popular is First Fridays when you can stroll down the historic Highland Avenue and visit the different shops, galleries, and bars that host events and exhibits. Other popular events throughout the year include Whiskey in the District, An Evening in Paris, and the Rocky Water Brew Fest. I love when art and history come together so this was a really fun place for me to explore. Unfortunately the downtown arts recently suffered a blow with the closing of the Foosaner Art Museum whose loss will be felt for years to come. In the future EGAD will see the former art museum into a 180-room hotel by Northboro Builders who purchased it, a parking garage built, and more retail businesses added to Highland Avenue. Hopefully as they focus on getting bigger they won't loss the old Florida charm which was what made this such a delightful place to visit in the first place.

I also invited our family and some friends. It was everyone's first time taking a Painting with a twist class and we all loved it. They allow you to bring your own drink and food. We brought wine and a charcuterie board and it was so easy to munch and sip through out the class. I loved how they have the stations set up and aprons to use. They play fun music and the class is very easy to follow. I was surprised by how great we all did and it was very cool to compare our art at the end. The teacher was very sweet and had a great personality for teaching. Overall the class was worth every $ and we would love to come back and do another class soon. As locals it's great to try something new in our neighborhood.

What I got was a fun, entertaining, and truly special evening all the while painting (which I had never done in my life. The moment you walk in, the staff helps with the selection of colors, the prep and points you to your assigned seats (written down by name!) Then that's where the fun begins. The artist walks you through, step-by-step on how to pull of the painting - I had my doubts I could actually do it, but even though I'm saying this myself, I think I did a pretty good job. There was friendly and fun banter throughout the whole process, a break period where we had a fun game drawing a cow (or was it a giraffe?) and even someone won a prize. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and I'm already looking forward to going back again (and more.)

How lucky were we to have access to a living memory of the daily tasks and workings of the space facilities there. As we toured, he described hands on knowledge of how everything worked, and even described his own Experience and job at the space technology test sites. He described how he started in 1952 and gave a few personal anecdotes. As an amateur historian myself, with the bachelor's degree in history, having him as a prime resource is profoundly honorable and gives the museum, the integrity it deserves. A fascinating history in the buildings and the projects that came out of the space coast. Highly recommend, and if you can meet Bob, he will enlighten your imagination. He is sharp, articulate, and witty. Thank you for an unforgettable tour.
