This is a great addition to the Kensington community near the neighboring Antique Village…read more It occupies the entire building next to the post office, and has a large parking lot in the rear (with a few spots reserved for the dental practice). It's a unique art school combined with artists' workshops on three levels. They offer an array of classes for artists and for novice looking for a fun hobby. 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.

Unlike those 1-800 flowers, FTD flower or From you flowers big websites, you know exactly whom you are dealing with and feel more confident that no mistakes will be made. I ordered various flower arrangements from the internet vendors before. While their overall prices are cheaper than the local florists, the flowers did not make it to the funereal home until the memorial service was over! Same thing happened to another arrangement for my friend's birthday, they didn't deliver it until the very next day. My only complain was the delivery fee was a bit higher than other florists, basic fee was $17.95 plus additional $12 if you want it deliver by noon. I knew I could save at least $40 to $60 ordering from those internet vendors but still chose Hoover-Fisher because of their reliability, can't afford to have any delay with funeral. I would most likely use this florist again but really hope they could lower the delivery fees in the future.
