Reviews
"They are closed! Google says open but I went today and they are closed for a remodel. Always call before you go regardless of what their website or google says. Happens all the time. Great when they are actually open!"
"Love this place! Both of my kids have attended summer camps, and I've been to many events. It's such a community asset, where everyone is welcome from experienced artist to newbie!"
"I just started going here this year and am really disappointed. Every interaction I have had with the people who work here was rude and condescending. They have very strict rules and are more passionate about rule enforcement than welcoming new people and fostering creativity and kindness in the community. I had high hopes for this place and am really let down by the negativity of this space."
"Went there for a dance class for my kid. Cool artsy atmosphere. Looks like a repurposed elementary school. Friendly staff. Lots of classes to choose from"
"I was a visiting artist, so my experience was different. The staff is amazing. Dedicated, enthusiastic and knowledgeable. The program is well organized and well prepared. I'm glad to have been involved in an event that encouraged learning in the arts. This facility is well appointed with many wheels and a great Bailey kiln! While clay is my specialty, the center offers other classes in glass, painting, theater etc. etc. Large place. Good peeps!"
