I came to find out about LHUCA through attending the First Friday art trail events in the area…read more Technically, the event is named after this place and has the gallery as its central focal point. The idea being to come stroll through the gallery, then work your way out onto the cordoned off streets and check out local art vendors and handmade goods before settling on beers and live music or performances somewhere along the way. This gallery always has a perfect assortment of displays running the gamut between peculiar to practical. I've seen some incredible handmade pottery mugs for sale, and some bizarre installations of another form of pottery: the toilet. It is, nevertheless, wonderful to have such a place in little ol' Lubbock. There are some beautiful large art pieces that hang on the walls making up the majority of the contents. Paintings, photography, mosaics. All sorts of media. Some for sale, albeit often at quite high prices, and many marked "NFS", or "Not For Sale". There's a very tiny little shop selling remnants of older installations, as well as "extras" made by some of the artists. It's quaint. A front desk has flyers and cards for the current and future exhibits. My favorite, they also have a pile of free stickers with the center name on them. Even in a time when retailers and restaurants struggle to keep staff, they always have plenty of attendants working the gallery to answer questions and shout at you if you dare touch the art. That's commendable and makes the experience all the more whole. It's been 7 years between the latest review and mine, but the place is still kickin' and worth visitin'!

Where do I want to go as my first stop during the first Friday art trail?…read more THE LHUCA OF COURSE. This building is one of my top favorite structures in Lubbock. It is very spacious and holds so many art appreciators all at once. It is the hub of the first friday art trail that happens every first friday of the month 6pm-9pm rain or shine! It is also open throughout the week to visit. During the first friday art trail they also serve beer and wine for a small cost. The Louise Hopkins Underwood Center for the Arts is an amazing addition to the sometimes known as boring Lubbock, Tx. It keeps the city excited about up and coming artists and their work. I love that our City has such an amazing establishment to enrich the locals.

Excellent Experience!!!! I had a lovely frame that my Sister did not have the heart to throw out…read morewhen she was moving away, and gave it to me, but there was no backing or glass. I recently purchased a movie prop and thought the frame would be perfect. I searched around online but could not really find just the glass and backing so I changed up my search and found Frame Mart. I took my frame and my prop into the store and Robbye helped me right away. She was pleasant and knowledgeable and assisted me with picking a complimenting backing and some museum glass for my frame. The pricing was shockingly affordable and I had my order in about a week. I came back and picked it up and could not be happier!!!! I cannot wait to hang it up next to my other Dracula memorabilia! Thanks Robbye and Frame Mart, I will be doing business with you again!

I came here hoping to avoid the usual fight for tables at J&B and the library. While it wasn't busy…read morewhen I was there, the wifi was even slower than J&B during midterms week. I had to use my cellular phone's connection to write this. Decent wi-if is literally the only thing I truly need in a study spot. It's a shame nobody working here has tried to fix this. This place has potential with its ambiance and proximity to Tech. An Art Gallery/Recording Studio sounds cute on paper, but TTU students will ultimately cause this business to make it or fail. I was initially happy that I didn't see a lot of people when I walked in, but now I feel like I understand why.

Recently went to visit Studio 19 after hearing about the concept. It is a coffee shop that also has…read morea recording studio. You can rent rooms out to record for a certain amount of time at a set price. This review is about the coffee shop portion...not the studio part of the concept. The overall concept seems pretty cool at first, but the execution of the coffee shop portion is poorly done. The manager, from what I can tell, was telling the employees loudly in front of guests (all 4) how mad the owner is going to be on Monday and telling them to "be on their toes". Extremely unprofessional, should've been taken care of in the back...as for the place itself, its set up with art that can be bought throughout the entire coffee shop, which is neat but also means the seating is limited since they are trying to drive customers eyes to the walls of art to buy. All the tables in the store are not flat for getting actual writing done, but instead some sort of stucco art design that make for a poor surface to be productive on. The coffee overall was good, which is important for a COFFEE shop.I had a "Sticky Wicked" and it was pretty awesome actually. But the wifi is so slow for a coffee house not even 6 blocks away from a large research university I ended up having to leave to go to Starbucks to actually load web pages to do homework. The overall experience was poor and I found the place itself doesn't know what it is; art gallery? coffee shop? recording studio? I wanted to like this place, as a new place to study and somewhere to support other than Starbucks. But the experience was so poor I really wouldn't recommend going, at least not for now. I think it is a missed opportunity with so many college students always looking for a place to study and meet up. The overall vibe doesn't seem to be catering to college students as much as some sort of other customer base that I'm not entirely sure Lubbock has. Best to fight for a table at JB or the usual Starbucks.
