Kelly's Art Shack is a trendy art studio in the middle of Historic Downtown McKinney…read more This kid-friendly space has activities like video games, board games and even cornhole out on the beautiful courtyard (decorated completely by the owner, Kelly, herself) that is attached to the gallery. I loved relaxing here with co-workers in the evening, not to mention that view of the McKinney water tower from the patio at night cannot be beat. I highly recommend coming to see the unique artwork. My favorite piece was a large, canvas painting of "Woodstock '69," so as soon as I saw it, I had to take home the original before there were only prints available. The art is so affordable and better yet, when you purchase one you become an "artster," which comes with membership benefits. I can't wait for the next live music show and I am hoping to attend a paint party soon. I may even try to book this event space for my toddler's birthday party!

Don't use it. Don't like part of the stencil? Awesome! Don't use it. Your success... or failure... is 100% up to you and your creative vision. That being said - no one came out of this class with anything that didn't look absolutely beautiful! Holly was absolutely awesome! We had an issue with my board being warped (not their fault... they didn't grow the tree right?) and she rolled with the punches. Super impressed with this place! Also.... The wine was complimentary

At the end of the night, she even left extra supplies for my daughter and her friend to keep painting. You'll be surprised at what you can create with her expertise. My husband and I can barely draw anything, yet we were both thrilled with how our paintings turned out. Every time I see our artwork, it brings a smile to my face. Hope is fantastic, and I look forward to booking her again!

We had some real tough days, but you know what days are ALWAYS good days? The days she has art with Paige. She's even told us that when she "grows up", she's gonna pay someone to paint with her.

It is my mission and passion to build and empower artists, encourage creative thinking and problem solving, and nurture their human need for self-expression and self-actualization through visual art.

Apparently this woman has been complaining about what happened and she didn't get her way. We had already talked to a manager the day it happened and it was okay but they decided to be dirty about it and listen to a crazy person that is not all there. they told my husband they were going to call the cops on him when he went to the gym tonight. I guess this time I will need to cancel our membership because this gym doesn't want to hear both sides of they story. Every time I have seen her after the issue, she stare me and my daughter down and makes it uncomfortable to wokout but they don't care about that issue. I will be canceling my family's membership and will find a better gym.
