I've now had the pleasure of working with two different teachers at WSS and came away impressed both times. This school is a great place to build your skills, knowledge and confidence as an artist (i.e., impressive array of class and workshop options, small class sizes, comfortable and supportive environment, strong sense of community). I highly recommend WSS for anyone truly interested in growing as an artist.

It will challenge you. It will improve you. If you're looking for individualized instruction, and small classes with lots of attention, check them out. I really love that I can walk to their Georgetown location. (Although they're in Bethesda too.)

Wendy Taylor was recommended to me by a friend. I sought her help after months of Physical Therapy…read morehad failed to alleviate the symptoms from a bulging disc in my lower back. Wendy's manner was excellent. She took time getting to know my history, habits, complaints and lifestyle before every treatment. She explained everything she was doing beforehand which made me feel at ease. Almost immediately, there were subtle, but discernible improvements, in my back and throughout my body as a whole. I would highly recommend Wendy to anyone who wishes to improve their body, maintain their health, or seek relief from a specific injury or discomfort.

Oh my goodness! Where do I even begin? I would give Wendy a million stars if I could!…read more I reached out to Wendy during a very trying time of extreme stress, anxiety and mental struggle, and I am so glad I did. Wendy's help and guidance over the past couple months have truly been an integral part of my healing process. I've been doing a weekly combination of acupuncture and reiki, and I highly recommend it. Even after a just a preliminary reiki session, I immediately felt more grounded and at peace, and my lower back pain was gone. Wendy took great care to thoroughly go over my physical and mental health history, as well as past and current life struggles before we began our sessions. She tailors each session accordingly, and very thoroughly explains her reasoning behind her decisions--it is so interesting and informative! She has provided me many helpful tips and tricks to take moving forward! Along with being an amazing healer, Wendy is such a kind, thoughtful, and caring person--I am truly lucky to have found her in my healing journey.

This gallery is not to be missed! I was walking from place to place and needed a good AC break, and…read morethis was the PERFECT spot to stop. It is two stories and has a decent amount of art, but can be pretty easily done in 30-45 min. There is much more than traditionally framed art- there are light installations, interactive pieces, and all kinds of different textures and modes of art. I was impressed to see a Chihuly chandelier too! A great mix of small, impactful pieces and large grand ones. So many great photo moments. The staff here were wonderful. Passionate and helpful. The security was also so kind and I chit chatted with them throughout my visit. This is one of those places that makes you feel patriotic without feeling political. I was in awe of all the amazing things I learned here.

Miguel Lem, artist and owner of lemdesign art studio, is a highly accomplished artist, photographer…read moreand interior designer both here in the US and in his native Argentina. His small studio on the 3rd floor of a brick row house right next to Cafe Saint Ex is as visually enticing as it is warm and inviting. It's also the perfect location to take a one-on-one art class - where you can learn about (and learn to create!) all different types of art! Miguel works with all mediums - from oil and encaustic to printing his own photography onto metal. A lot of his art pieces are for sale in his studio. He also does commissioned pieces, and recently created a 5 piece art installation for the front lobby of the "Church Place" condo building, located at 1520 16th St. NW, Wash DC. Miguel is also a very active member of DC's "Mid City Artists" collaborative, and regularly participates in their bi-annual Open Studios Tour. He's definitely an artist worthwhile checking out in DC!

I can't say enough good things about this place, one of my creative homes here in DC! Dan has…read morecreated such a beautiful, light-filled space that's equipped with pretty much any tool or equipment you might need to bring any idea to life. The classes themselves are fantastic - you'll learn by doing, but also by watching an expert demonstrate for you, and getting as much help as you may need throughout. It's a good balance: you'll build your skill set and learn the practicalities of metalsmithing, but also learn to understand your own creative vision, which you can work on during open studio hours. The vibe is really chill (Dan plays great music!), all the teachers are kind and helpful and supportive, your fellow students are all interesting and fun, and overall this is the kind of space where you feel like you're able to make mistakes and still learn and grow from them. If you've ever wanted to learn the true craft of metalsmithing to make fine jewelry, this is the place to do it.

How do I give 6 stars? 7 stars? 100? Dan and JewelryClassDC deserve them, and more…read more I worked with Dan to make my engagement ring and it was an unforgettable experience. It can feel like a real leap of faith to do something so personal and important in such an unconventional way, and to put your trust in a stranger and in your own ability to learn something you have never even considered before--but I am so glad I took it. I have an experience I will remember for the rest of my life, my fiancée (she said yes of course!) has a beautiful, truly one-of-a-kind heirloom she adores and values beyond measure, and we have a story we will tell over and over again. She is already getting questions about where I found her ring, and her friends are already gushing about how amazed they are I made it. Honestly, I am amazed too. I wasn't sure I could make a ring that looked better than a beginner's craft project!--but that was before I met Dan. I had a personal design idea that not only do they not sell in stores, they don't even really sell jade cut how I needed. As far as I can tell, no one had done this before. Well, now someone has, it turned out incredible, and it's all because Dan made it possible. He went above and so far beyond. As a craftsman he is not just skilled, but meticulous, and determined to make sure every product he works on meets his high standard of excellence. As a teacher he is patient, knowledgeable, and eager to share and show what he knows--which is a lot.  And to top it all off, he is a real man of his word--exactly the kind of person you want to put your trust in when dealing with precious metals, stones, and memories. In short, they don't 'em like Dan anymore--that goes for his character, and his jewelry. If you need jewelry made, if you need jewelry worked on, if you need a guiding hand to make something yourself--do yourself a favor and see Dan and his team at JewelryClassDC.
