We truly had a wonderful time in our class! I brought a group of residents from a local retirement community for Active Aging Week, and we will definitely be back. Our instructor was great, and so patient with all of us! Wonderful group of people!
Someone told me about this location as I expressed a desire to learn how to use my digital camera more effectively. I signed up for the Digital Photography 101 class. The cost is $160 but they do have scholarships available. I was blessed to be awarded one and only had to pay about $60 for the class! This particular class is every Tuesday night for the month of September. There are LOTS of creative classes available in numerous mediums. I’ll post a few screenshots to give an idea! They also have classes for youth! There is a parking lot directly across from the building. Just be mindful not to park in any reserved spots. There is also some street parking nearby. The location is visually appealing which I appreciated. The staff members I encountered were very pleasant and helpful as I found my way to the photography studio. The instructor Sydni Bibb is very engaging, helpful and supportive as we all learn what we’re doing. I will be relocating soon but if I weren’t, I’d be coming here for lots more opportunities to foster my creative side! Incredible place!
Very unprofessional and terrible so-called "teaching" in their classes. Teachers are disinterested in actually teaching and act as if it is an imposition if you ask questions in a class they are meant to teach as though it were some type of imposition upon their more valuable than your time. Had had the misfortune of classes with two out of three instructors who've been quite rude and incompetent "teachers". I do NOT recommend if you are going to try something that should have been enjoyable. It is tedious at best. Stay home and watch a YouTube tutorial instead.
The Taste of Art classes are fantastic! They're a great price and you can do so much with them. It's a great way to see if you want to commit to a full class. The instructors are always so fun and friendly! Even if you think you're not "creative" or "artistic" you should try these classes because they walk you through everything and anyone at any level can make something to be proud of.
Really cool place for kids and adults to learn and practice different art forms.
