Wonderful staff. A great selection of things to paint. In this fast paced time it's nice to set and relax and explore your artistic side. Awesome and different place for a kids birthday party.

Very cool and unique pottery pieces, including the vintage Christmas trees our grandmas all had back in the day with the lights. The staff was so nice and helpful and the area is cute and peaceful. Fair prices and good turn around for pottery. I will definitely be back again.

The kids (they are 10yrs) had a fantastic time participating in one of the skills classes. They made the pumpkins out of the clay and then went back to paint. Highly recommended for an afternoon or 2, of fun.
