It is almost impossible to believe these acres exist in the middle of the city. I missed the labyrinth on this trip but that just means I need to come back again soon. This is my favorite place in Rockford!

This is a program that will address a wide range of skill and level. The offerings are diverse from clay (including fired pottery) to watercolor, acrylic, drawing, and mixed media. Instructors vary with a wide background. Class size is small enough to receive personal attention. It is a very nurturing environment so you can feel comfortable experimenting. In addition to traditional arts, they offer a wide range of programing to explore many facets of creativity as well as growth.

It featured a fear variety of men's clothing and household goods. There's always tons of women's clothing and accessories as well.

Plenty of dressing rooms as well and there's restrooms too. Solid place to check out

I occasionally work in Rockford and I've been coming to the Rockford Restore since they opened. This is the first time I've had a bad experience. Reading the other reviews, I see I'm not the only one who's had issues with their customer service. I get that they are mostly volunteer staffed, and volunteers cant be held to the same standards as paid employees, but you should know how to deal with people. First I asked about the price of an item that wasnt marked. I was told that I should have known what they cost, the same as all similar items. Ok, fine, moving on. I bought a bunch of items including a ceiling fan. After paying, I asked if they had a screwdriver I could use to disassemble the fan to fit it in my car. The woman working the register said she had no idea if they had one. So I went to the section where screwdrivers were for sale, took one out of the bin, and started disassembling the fan. The woman at the register literally started screaming at the top of her lungs that I needed to drop the screwdriver immediately, that they couldnt possibly sell it after I had touched it, what was I doing?! I mean literally screaming. At that point, if I hadnt already paid for my items, I would have just walked out.

I had a man, in his 20's, following me around, who claimed he didn't speak English. I pulled out my phone and he used translator. His input didn't translate. He kept me in his eyesight. I went out to my car to bring a bag out. What I saw him do made me question getting my laundry. The man was circling inside the laundromat looking for me. He kicked a chair in frustration. He kept asking for my phone. Ladies, your keys are a weapon, your phone is a weapon, carry pepper spray, protect yourself. It wasn't Martha there. The clients are changing, and they are running the neighbors out.
