This is AMAZING Place! It has to be one of the cutest places that I have seen since a place that used to be located in Downers Grove IL called Nancy's Tea Room. Art 4 Soul although Art does heal the Soul, this hidden Gem is so much more. It is the perfect place to purchase a unique gift. I was really impressed with the items for infants/children. The Associate that I met that day was polite, welcoming, knowledgeable, and professional. If you are looking for a place to host a party for your children, yourself or a girls night out, this is a great place! If you are looking to get together to do something unique with friends, this is your place. I am looking forward to my next visit! I had the pleasure of speaking to Jen the Owner and she was so accommodating. read more

See all

I've been going here for years and it just dawned on me that I have never left a review. This place has a fantastic, cute gift shop in the front and a ceramics painting area in the back. Jen, the owner, is super nice and always willing to assist with her expertise. You should definitely spend some time shopping or creating here! read more

Bougie little boutique that always has cute and unique things. Pottery painting is the best in the little loft with colors galore, it's one of my favorite escapes! The only downside is it can be a little pricey. read more

Came here to paint potter with my boyfriend, thought it would be a cute idea for out new apartment. The staff was more concerned with their lunch than with us, even after we said it was out first time there. It seemed more like social hour to them which was a little off putting. They very briefly explained how it worked and let us to out own devices. We were told that painting colors on top of one another would still show up but that wasn't the case. I even put 4 coasts like they said and still couldn't see it. They gave us no color restrictions and didn't help us get paint how ever they did remind us every 15 min to not take more paint than we were going to use. Because of the bad service, the constant penny pinching comments, and how u satisfied we were with our pieces the get two starts. It would have been one but the shop downstairs is cute. read more

Art 4 Soul - There are supposed to be white, yellow, and grey vines :( 4 coats and they still didn't show up - Art Galleries Near Me - Homewood, Illinois

I've been to Art 4 Soul several times and I've always been pleased. I hosted a paint night / bachelorette party here, we brought, food and drinks and music and it was EXCELLENT! I've been in to paint individual ceramics pieces as well. I love that they will give you a little direction if you ask, but they don't try to force you to make their idea of art; they guide you to create something of your own. The prices are reasonable. When you purchase the ceramics, all the firing and supplies are included (no hidden fees). I'll be back again. read more

Art 4 Soul is a nice little artsie boutique in downtown Homewood. I have been shopping there for several birthday/Christmas presents for the ladies in my life. What makes Art 4 Soul standout, though, is the crafts you can do right on site! They have an upstairs room with unfinished ceramics and various platforms you can use to make mosaics. My wife has been several times to make personalized presents for special occasions--think weddings, special anniversaries, etc. She has also made some cool things for us, like a mosaic trivet that sits by the kitchen window. When the sun catches the glass tiles, it lights up the room. One of the things I really like about Art 4 Soul is that they are very accommodating for children. A few years ago, we had a Christmas party for some of the kids' classmates. Everyone painted a piece and Art 4 Soul fired it for the kids. The childrens' work came out great, and everyone had a good time. Art 4 Soul is definitely on my shopping list this Christmas. read more

I attended Art 4 Soul for the first time this past Saturday, April 9. I brought in food and drinks (which I LOVE that they allow you to do) and me and my girls had a BLAST. It was so much fun picking out the ceramics we wanted to paint and then actually painting them. Of the four of us that went, only 1 had been before and the rest of us were "ceramic painting virgins." But it didn't matter that our painting didn't come out perfect...we had fun doing it. The staff was very nice and even gave us pointers and ideas for our ceramics. Me and my friends plan on making another visit back REALLY soon. I cannot wait to go pick up my ceramics and see the finished products. (You don't get to take the ceramics home right away...it takes about a week.) Art 4 Soul was a lot of fun and is good for people of all ages...children and adults. read more

Nice place for unusual, semi pricey gifts for the home, jewelry, seasonal items, etc.. Not a very big place though. The main attraction here seems to be the kids parties in the basement. You can select your pottery, paint it and come pick it up a week or so later after they've toasted it or whatever they do. Not really all that cheap to do, but the kids really enjoy creating their little masterpieces....and hey, who doesn't need another ceramic frog or bowl for the curios cabinet?! I think they have bead parties too, but I haven't quite caught that fever yet. Beats Chuckee Cheese by more than a few rat hairs! read more

I just had a birthday party for a 5 year old there this weekend. They were wonderful, accomodating, and very reasonably priced. I highly recommend. read more

This place is awesome, cool little art gallery on the main floor, bead shop in the basement, and paint your own ceramics on the top floor. The only negative is that unlike other paint your own pottery studios, there is no materials fee, instead the pieces are a bit more expensive. Other than that its awesome, they'll even ship it to you if you're out of town, lots of fun! read more

Art 4 Soul what can I say. My family has been going here for years. We have a painting party where we can get together as a family and make plates or whatever the kids choose. I love that i still have the plates with my daughter's hand prints from the time she was 2 years old. Just had a work retreat here and we made are own coffee mugs. So much fun and the staff is so helpful, especially for the art challenged. So lucky to have this wonderful place in the south suburbs. read more

3 friends and I went for Christmas get-together,we had such a nice time. Everybody so helpful and painting the ceramics was so fun and prices so reasonable for all the services you get. The owner does her best to make sure you are pleased and that you leave happy... All our ceramic pieces were finished so quickly and turned out terrific. I would so recommend coming here if you want to hang out in a clean,airy,sunny space and come home with a cool handmade piece of YOUR art. I am so not the artist yet I loved my work,hope to get back here soon. storefront is neat too!!! read more

Great place for creative party's for all ages. When I had family in town a few years back, we sent the kids up to kill some time. They came back so excited with their new creations that the adults in the family joined them their next visit. Turned out to be great memories for all. Now they are older but still like to stop in and browse or pick up something to take back home before eating at the original Aurelio's pizza right across the street. Lots of great ideas for gifts, or something for yourself. Glad to help support our local artists. read more
