I have never had a better birthday experience in my eight years of raising my daughter. ArtZone was pure magic from beginning to end, and Giselle is truly one in a million. We had a family loss the week of my daughter's 8th birthday, so I came into the party scattered -- I forgot plates, platters, and honestly half the things parents normally remember. Giselle stepped in and covered everything with so much grace and kindness. She didn't just help; she went above and beyond in a way I will never forget. The space itself is incredible. Giselle hosted the kids through the most thoughtful art activities, and every child went home with at least three creative projects. You can feel her purpose in the way she runs her studio. As she shared her story about being an adventurous child who loved the outdoors, it became so clear that she has created a space where children can truly thrive. It's not just a venue; it's an experience. The environment is unique, warm, imaginative, and filled with details that clearly come from someone who genuinely loves what she does. My daughter and all her friends are already asking to go back and arrange playdates there -- the play area alone is unlike anything else in the neighborhood. The party was incredibly affordable for the value we received, and worth every single penny. ArtZone is a Gem - Highly recommended read more

Amazing and nothing negative to say. My child attending a day camp and she can't wait to go back. The owner Giselle has literally thought of everything to keep kids funny engaged and entertained. Come check it out and you're child will love you for it. read more

We had my daughter's 3rd Birthday here and it was a blast! Giselle the owner was so helpful, helped me set up and took account everything I asked for. The kids had a blast from making their arts and craft to playing inside and out! My daughter loved it so much she asked to have her birthday here again! Definitely recommend! Thanks for everything read more

My nephew birthday party was great, really safe place for kids and great environment, Gisela the Owner and her staff is always taking care of the guests making sure all is on point. read more

Awesome place for young kids to be artistic and play. We go to the classes and have had a birthday party there. We will continue coming

Can't say enough good things about Artzone! From the lovely owner Gisela, to the amazing staff and the fun environment for the kids. We had our daughter's birthday there 2 years in a row! That's how much she loves this place. The kids are free to paint and play and create art in a fun environment. Their camps are also so fun! We can't wait to come back soon read more

We just had our daughter's 5th birthday party at ArtZone West LA and it was so great! All of the kids had a ton of fun, the staff was super nice and helpful, and all the parents were also impressed with the space. This was the first birthday party for us where we just brought some food and arrived and it was so amazing for all the details to be already handled! My daughter said it was the most amazing birthday party ever and we already have friends planning to have parties there this year! Thank you ArtZone! read more

We had my daughter's 4th birthday here months ago and parents and kids are still raving about it! This place is a magical haven! Gisella and team were fantastic to work with, both is the planning process and during the party and they went out of their way to customize their activities to my daughter's likings (she wanted rainbows). We had about 30 kids plus 1 parent each and the place didn't feel crowded. We also had kids ages 1-7 and there was something that catered to all ages. The party went seamlessly. Gisella and team had everything we may have needed or forgotten (e.g, baskets to hold utensils, paper towels, cool table cloth for the cake table, etc.). Highly recommend this place for a birthday or even parents night out getaway. We will be back!! read more

We had our child's 4th birthday party here! The kids all had so much fun. Besides the fun art projects the play space, bouncy house and water play space were a big hit with kids of various ages. Highly recommend for a fun kid-focused birthday party. read more

Great place to celebrate your kid's birthday. Gisela made it all happen and we all had lots of fun. My 4 year old and friends had fun running, bouncing and climbing and then... once all that energy got out, they started to do art projects. Lovely place. Thank you Art Zone West LA! read more

The owner Giselle (sp?) is an absolute dream hostess. Great space, wonderful attitude, true caring and love for art. Hermosa Beach might be cozier in some ways but this place beats the pants off Hermosa for the treehouse set up AND the water room. My son thoroughly enjoyed himself. I'd definitely consider trying camp and Parents Night out here as options. The painting is terrific and for folks daunted by the preschool search and waitlist list rigomore this might be the best option in town! PS. BRING EXTRA CLOTHES as the water room is SO fun but they get literally soaked! read more

Art Zone West La - He liked the water room! Take extra clothes because this place is a must see and an utter SOAK DOWN for kiddos. - Art Schools Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I am so grateful to have found ArtZone West LA! It's a hidden gem on the Westside near the intersection of Pico Boulevard and Barrington that has art camps/classes for kids as young as 4 which is hard to find in LA. My 4-year old daughter really enjoys her time there and always has a blast playing in their space and creating all these art sculptures/paintings/etc. The owner, Gisella, and her staff are great and make it fun for the kids. I also appreciate their flexibility - they will work with you to watch your kids on days when there is no school as long as you pool together a group of at least 3 kids. This has been a lifesaver for me as a working mom! read more

Attention all toddler mamas! If your little one likes: - paint - crafts - slime - water - messes ... or they're just an all-around monster, they'll pretty much go bananas here. We hosted a little birthday party for our 3-year old tornado and it was super easy, fun and affordable. And the best part? I didn't have to clean a darn thing (other than my child who was covered in paint and shaving cream). Yes, shaving cream... they went APE SH-T over it. They offer private art parties in 2-hour blocks, so we reserved the art studio from 10-12pm. You can bring in food/snacks/cake and they'll provide water pitcher and cups... they even cut and served the cake we brought! We brought bagels and donuts and were able to set everything up 15 mins before our guests arrived. The staff was so sweet and helpful- Laura, the owner, was present for our little party along with another gal, and they did a fantastic job. I love how laid back and flexible they were from the beginning- we chose 2 planned crafts for the kids (which they take home as a souvenir) plus there's unlimited painting. There's also a couple of other areas to keep the kids busy: - Play area + tree house/fort thing for climbing and slightly worn toys (though the kids don't care) - Water room with a fountain-like table and bowls/toys for pouring and play - Paint squirting room Definitely recommend hosting a birthday party here and letting your kids play, paint and splash their messy little hearts out! read more

So dirty and crowded. They enrolled so many kids in such a small place. My kids didn't stay more than few minutes but we had to pay the whole amount. read more

Wow! What a wonderful experience! I just celebrated my daughter's sixth birthday at Art Zone and everyone there made it so special! Gisela and all the wonderful ladies who worked there not only assisted with set up but were so courteous and helpful throughout the birthday party so much so that I felt relaxed and knew everything was going smoothly and everyone was enjoying themselves!! The kids had an absolute blast doing the different art projects and playing in the water room. I really could not have picked a better spot for her birthday! read more

Gets 5 stars from me! Art Zone is a great place for those who want their babies and little ones to explore art. We had a great experience, love seeing my baby smile. Paint, easel, art projects, and more. The staff is friendly and nice, not over burdensome with rules and gives the right amount of space so you can create artwork together with your child freely. They introduced new projects to my 2 year old and i was surprised to see how open he was to them. We're definitely coming back! read more

I love this place SO much. Both my kids attend their preschool once a week. They have never ending projects, a really cute play area and a water room as well as other cool stuff to do. The teachers have a very calm way of interacting with the kids and I've taken away some pointers! Also, the kids definitely get messy but the paint always comes out in the wash. Both my kids beg to go almost daily and I have to peel them away when it's time to leave at the end of class. I can't say enough great things about teachers Laura and Sandra and Art Zone. I highly recommend it! read more

Great place to take a toddler to paint , play and relax. My daughter had a wonderful time at the art studio and will be definitely coming back. read more

This place is incredible. We just attended a 3 yrs old birthday! It's magical. Set up for toddlers and up. Has multiple experiences for the kids. We all had a blast. From painting on stuffed animals, climbing, hand prints, butterfly clay making, water tables and more the party kept us all interacting with the different mediums. It makes me want to put my 20 month old son in their preschool program. The service was outstanding keeping things organized and engaged. We highly recommend. read more

Kids seemed to have a pretty fun time here for a birthday party that we went to. It can be a little bit hectic as some of the kids are doing art projects while others were running around their tree house area. Overall a little bit tight of a space, but bottom line, kids have fun. As long as your group isn't too large, probably a fun spot for kids. read more

Absolutely love ART ZONE!! Such a neighborhood gem. My daughter who is 4 years old, did the summer camp and LOVED it!! We will be doing the camp it again this summer! Art Zone has water play, slime, painting, crafts, a tree-house, toys....honestly its like a kids dream there!! The staff is incredible. Giselle, the owner is amazing and goes above and beyond to make sure each child is having fun. 5 Stars all the way!! read more

My daughter had a fantastic week here during their summer art camp. She absolutely loves anything with glitter so I signed her up for glitter week and they did all sorts of great projects throughout the week. She still has her art work up in her room and displayed on the shelves. I'd probably take her back again next year read more

We have done preschool and camp here for our 3.5 and 4.5 year olds. The staff is super sweet and caring and our boys love it. The location and the parking leave a bit to be desired- but once you get over that it's a great place. They have "drop-in" preschool on weekdays- not a frequently available option so I would add extra stars if I could! Was essential when we moved here in the spring of a school year! read more

We love this place! All three of my daughters have been coming here for many years now and they can't get enough! It's a place where they're able to get as messy as they want and create art! Gisella, the owner, is the sweetest and genuinely loves all of the kids. This place has been a life saver for us on days where there is no school. Can't say enough about art zone. Love you guys!!! read more

My boys (7 and 4) love going to the Art Zone. They've been going for years. Started going for some friends' birthday parties and they continue going for day camp over the holidays or whenever their school is closed. The parties were always well run. The kids are fully engaged. They bounce from station to station doing various projects. The day camp is awesome too. Lots for the kids to do. The owner, Grisella, is truly wonderful. We've gone to all sorts of kid centric venues and we have never met someone who cares as much about the kids and their experiences than Grisella does about the kids at Art Zone. I highly recommend you bring your kids and a change of clothes for them! read more

We just had my daughter's 5th birthday party at the Art Zone. Worried about having our usual outdoor birthday party in an el nino winter (it did in fact storm the day of her party), I did a lot of research on all of the indoor birthday party venues on the Westside. The Art Zone is definitely the most reasonably priced compared to the other options, but the reality is, it is also the most fun. Everyone-- kids and parents, had an amazing time. I've had a couple of other parents come up to me and say "it was the best birthday party ever". We had three craft projects, unlimited easel painting, water play, and tons of running and climbing and imaginative play. The art projects are open ended and the materials are ample. We had kids from the age of 2-6, and everyone worked at their own level. The party included two lovely studio assistants who did all of the prep work and clean up and I was able to socialize at my own party. Laura and her staff are organized and thorough and really made every aspect of the event from planning through clean up as easy as it could have possibly been. They even supply the balloons, decorations, paper goods... did I mention it was amazing? read more

I absolutely love this place and my kids love it even more. We had our daughter's 5th birthday party and I never want to have another kid's party anywhere else again. Gisella (the owner) is the best and so sweet and fun and made sure that every kid was catered for. Even the kids who weren't as interested in doing art had the best time in the water room and the play structure. Because of my extremely positive experience with the birthday party I signed my daughter up for a week of summer camp there and she came home so excited and happy every day with lots of fun art to show for her amazing time there. We will definitely be back for more art fun and highly recommend this place and Gisella and her awesome staff! read more

We just had my son's 5th birthday party at Art Zone and everyone loved it. The staff made set up and tear down SUPER easy for me. The kids loved all of the activities and the adults thought the place was super cute. We had 25 adults and 18 kids and had plenty of room. I highly recommend it for your little one's birthday!!! read more

Not impressed with the camp at all. Too many kids packed in. Very disappointing. Do not send young kids to this summer camp.

We had my daughter's bithday party here. It was very nice. All the staff was wonderful and everyone had a great time. I loved that they set up and cleaned up everything! Thank you for a wonderful party! read more

Our children have the best time at Art Zone! The staff is awesome, fun and dependable!

My daughter has chosen art zone for her birthday parties two years in a row, and she and her friends had a blast both times!! The staff is incredibly helpful, organized and fun. There is a play structure the kids enjoy and unique art activities. They also make it very easy to host. I highly recommend it for birthdays!! read more

Had the best time today at the art zone!!! My daughter LOVED all the different stations they had set up - the play and climb structure, group easel painting, clay station, fruit and vegetable stamping, water room and spray and squeegee fun! Will definitely come back and possibly have a birthday! read more

If such awsome places existed in my time, I'd probably would have never left that tree house!!! The staff is also amazing. A lot of neat/ smart activities as well. Glad I found the place. read more

I love art zone in hermosa. My review is about the customer service at Pico. My friend and I called multiple times, no answer. The website says it's ok to text. I text 3 days in advance about coming on a Thursday to make sure they are open. The response is not sure, text back on Wednesday. I text, no response. The website says they have an open studio at 1:30, so my friend and I decide to just go. On Thursday as I leave the house and am on my way I get a text back saying they're full. Full, indies that mean I could have booked 2 spots for my friend and I?! Turns out we needed an appointment because of winter break. The frustrating part is that they could have told us that when I first texted. It wasn't clear on their site. Very frustrating. Then I ask if there's anywhere nearby they can recommend because I'm already on my way with a 3 year old and their response is the mall really?! So I'm annoyed because the communication was so poor on their end over something that could have been very simple to communicate. read more

I would really give 4 1/2 stars if I could. The pros way outweigh the cons for this place! Very magical place founded on principles of art as therapeutic for children and as a form of individual expression, and staff trained in NVC so interactions with children are gentle and lovely. We have had many wonderful hours here during the art free play. The supplies are the highest quality, the water room is so fun for children, nobody acts annoyed if there's loudness or a mess but my children are generally be respectful with meatballs belongings that is a two-way street. There are no yucky crafts only materials placed out so the child can do what they imagine. Climbing area is a good mix of daring and challenging and also safe. There's a lovely Café across the street where you can run and pick up food for lunch. Only deduction is because when we tried the preschool program, I witnessed my and a few others children get shoved and violently treated by one of the oldest boys, repeatedly, and staff would not set Limits on him and adequately protect the other children. I understand that the bully is a victim too and is hurting, but the first step is to protect the safety of children and this child was a loose cannon and needed to be followed - had some anger and impulsivity issues. I watched, stepped in and suddenly redirected and help I are not protect some other children, told the staff, they would come after something happened and someone's crying. There was not adequate supervision for this child and I finally decided not to leave my children there without me, I was worried about the other kids. read more

Great place. Great staffs. Teachers are amazing. Highly recommended. They have new stuff everyday. Everyday learning something fun and new. Very good environment for kids. read more

So disappointed! I have a 15 month old and have been trying to go to Art Zone since I read about it. Over the holidays we were so excited as I wasn't working and could take my daughter only to find out it was camps only and there were no time slots where I could drop in w my daughter from post Xmas until the end of first week of January. I called again today as read about their studio together time 3-5 pm which would be great for working moms who could swing it on a Friday but alas no luck. They have extended care then. I asked about next Monday as it's MLK but it's camp again. I've always left messages for owner asking if a timeslot could be made available for those of us who cannot do 10-3 pm but no response to date. It's sad that they would exclude an age group completely to cater to only 3 and up as early development is key for younger kids as well. If anything they could section off tables as for younger kids a parent must be present read more

We have been bringing our kids here for years. They have a water room, painting area, play room, art clay and other creative manipulatives. Love the staff and the space! We organized a kindergarten "get to know you" party and a T-K birthday party both were awesome thanks to the people here. Highly recommended it. read more

We came here for the first time for a birthday party for my daughters friend. My daughter had the time of her life so we went back to have her 3rd birthday party here last week. My daughter is obsessed with the water room! My daughter and all of her friends had a blast and Laura (the owner) and staff were fantastic. They set up activities and all the kids got to take art home with them. Perfect place to take your kids to play, get messy, explore with art, and then leave the mess there. Love this place. read more
