Best place to learn pottery from! Subhash sir is an amazing teacher, very patient and passionate about what he does. I took the ceramic pottery course, level 1. These are the final project pieces I made. Was one of the best learning experiences🌼
My recent visit to your Reno studio was fantastic! It's the cleanest, best-organized painting studio I've been to in Reno – everything was readily available and easy to use. The paint selection was amazing, and the staff member who helped me was incredibly friendly and helpful. I'll definitely be back and will recommend you to others, Thanks!
Welcoming environment, specifically- greeted upon entry, and with a smile.(Oliver was delightfully welcoming & kind!) Friendly, informative employees(I would name the friendly gal, but never caught her name). Several choices of pieces to paint, tables are pre organized & spotless for each person, group, or party; very nice & accommodating set up! =) Studio fee is $9, plus cost of chosen piece, plus tax. "2 for 1 Tuesday's", which is when two people only pay one studio fee, plus cost of chosen piece, plus tax. Sunday "Family day", which is when studio fee is reduced to 4.75 per person, plus cost of chosen piece, plus tax. One & only complaint is pricing... ...online it says piece prices range from $3.50-$32...but my 2 children & I each chose rather small pieces, and each piece was $12 each, plus tax. Overall, wonderfully fun, creative place to unleash the inner artist in us all, or just a calming, cognitive activity, to each their own! =) Perhaps I'm on a lower budget than most, but it doesn't hurt anyone to plan ahead and make sure you have enough money before going! We can't wait to see our finished pieces, especially having been first timers! We'll be back, and bringing new people to explore & enjoy the creative fun at The Clay Canvas! =)
We did our daughter's 9th birthday here and it was such a blast! The staff was amazing and the price was perfect. We got a customized plate with the package and they did an awesome job painting it. We had no idea what they would design but she had a Minecraft theme and they nailed it! My daughter LOVED it! I would definitely recommend this place for all who love painting!
This place rocks! We had so much fun and the staff is incredible! Very affordable with a nice selection of items to paint. I would like to thank Maddie and Rina for an awesome experience. Will definitely be returning!
