The Curtis School opened in 1914. Today the little brick building (with an addition on the rear and…read morean expansive garden level) is the Curtis Center for the Arts, seving the City of Greenwood Village with gallery exhibitions, lectures, cultural events, and art instruction. The main floor has offices in front, restrooms and a meeting room in the rear, but most of the space is a gallery with front and rear sections. The gallery is well-programmed with continuing group exhibits of regional interest and the occasional solo or duo show of major regional and national importance. The little schoolhouse has been transformed into an elegant exhibition space. The art exhibitions are always worth a visit. You can also count on good snacks at the openings. Note that the parking lot is shared with Aspen Academy. The arts center is on the west side of the lot. You can enter off Orchard Road or into the back side of Aspen Academy from University Boulevard going south.

My 13 year old daughter absolutely loves art but she has never liked art classes, until we found…read morethis one! She doesn't want people telling her what to draw and paint as she just likes to come up with her own ideas. Tatiana allows her students to pick whatever they want, including the medium, and then she just helps them get better! My daughter loves it and can't wait for Wednesdays for her class!! The price is reasonable and the environment is exactly what we have been looking for. I would highly recommend Tatiana's classes to anyone wanting to explore their creative side!

Finally made it to The Paint Cellar for "Pick Your Own Project". Shanna, our instructor, was so…read morekind and helpful and gave personal attention to each painter. I like that The Paint Cellar has more than just canvas options and they provide all the supplies (and more) to allow everyone to channel their inner Bob Ross. Clients pick their project and the price (which varies from $35-$55) includes sipping some of Colorado's finest adult bevvies. This is absolutely perfect for date night, girls night out, or even a birthday party outing. Masks are required except at the painting table. Each table is appropriately distanced and cleaned well between each session.

We saw a Groupon equivalent to The Paint Cellar, and so we jumped on it. A group of four of us…read morewent over Labor Day weekend. They were very good about seating groups together. I was not overly fond of the viewing angle (pretty much 90 degrees from my canvas), and it was a bit crowded among the stools (but these places usually are). The instruction we received was useful and solid. The music was fine. The crowd seemed happy. It would have been nice if a hair dryer had been available so that the pauses for some people waiting for stuff to dry could have been accelerated. The staff was friendly. The house wine and basic beers were only $3 each, and they went down very easily. I would gladly come back here again.

It takes real commitment and the willingness to be honest with yourself and share with others. Now I have only a few sessions left, and don't want it to end, and have made friendships that I deeply value. Art is a language of the soul, and listening to one's soul takes some practice. It's a self-discovery journey that one's art reveals. Thanks to Michelle and Kc, our facilitator. I'd do it all over again, and would love to take more classes!

My friend and I have done this but it's been over 10 years. She taught us all the skills, helped us feel confident to make beautiful bowls. The hour flew by and I can't wait to come back again.

Afterwards, my fiancé and I were able to enjoy ourselves on the wheel. What I enjoyed the most is that Hannah really helped us through our time on the wheel. If we struggled, she walked with us through the process and made sure we got back on track! She was really patience and kind!! I definitely recommend taking a course with her if you are wanting to try and you're nervous -- Hannah makes sure that you comfortable and makes the class fun! Her shop is inside Coark Collective Food Hall, so be sure to stop by for some goodies afterwards!! Sadly, we didn't get any photos but that just shows that we enjoyed ourselves!

We definitely hope to do this again in the future and would highly recommend AR Workshop for birthday or any parties, adults or kids.
