So happy to have found this local place! I took an adult class and it was everything I was hoping for. The instructor was very helpful and I learned a lot. The class series was great value for money, and I am glad its nearby. I will be taking more classes with them.
View on Google ↗I had such a great experience at the Art Garage! I learned so much about handbuilding, working with clay, and glazing techniques. The class was filled with fun, creative people, and the energy in the room made it easy to learn and enjoy myself. I forgot how much I love clay—now I can’t wait to come back and take more classes! Kylle is an incredible instructor. She’s supportive and hands-on when you need guidance, but also gives you the space to figure things out on your own. Her approach made the learning process feel empowering, even when I made mistakes. It was a really fun class with the perfect mix of structure and freedom. The environment at the Art Garage is warm, welcoming, and safe. You instantly feel like part of the community, no matter your skill level.
View on Google ↗We love the Art Garage! The staff walk their talk of inclusivity and care for students. Their kindness and enthusiasm is awesome and they have been encouraging coaches for our kiddos. Our kids have grown in their confidence, adaptability and willingness to try new things and be ok with mistakes. The quality and variety of art made is fantastic. We still have the art work from programs hanging up in their bedroom and around the house and they are so proud. :) It has been awesome to see how one of our kids went from avoiding any sort of drawing/art because he didn't feel confident, to drawing being his #1 preferred activity! He draws every night before bed now (and whenever he can during the day)!
View on Google ↗My son (5) loves Art Garage! He has had the opportunity to participate in several types of programs they offer from Friday workshop when he has early dismissal at school to Summer Camp and he just went to Parents Night Out last night. I am so impressed with all of the opportunities Art Garage has, always with busy families in mind. My son loved his camp the best because they were able to do several ceramic creations. He felt empowered and proud.
