So pretty on the outside, I decided I had to check it out! Sure enough, it was even prettier on the…read moreinside! Revival Art House is the perfect shop for any gifts you need or home decor, etc. One of the two owners, Dana, was in the front when I entered and was so patient to answer my questions. She shared that Revival had been open for just over 3 years and sell/display art from over 200 local artists (Louisiana and southern region)! They offer interest free layaway, so if you have your eyes set on something a little over your monthly budget, they work with you to make it yours. Once upon a time, I designed and sold jewelry, and Dana was very encouraging with the idea of me becoming a vendor. She explained that the artists make 60% of their sales while the store gets 40%. Seems reasonable to me, and I'd be proud to have my jewelry on display with all the other local treasures! Overall, I absolutely loved Revival Art House, and along with Berry Town Produce, will likely make a point to stop in every time I'm near Ponchatoula. Beautiful setup in here and reasonable prices (set by the artists). I highly recommend!

Took a class last weekend: Create Your Own Geode! with Rhonda Kiser…read more I'm a crafty person, as in I'm not an artist. I know my way around the glue gun and a Silhouette machine but not a palette of watercolors or charcoal pencils. This was the perfect class! I got to create something without any real preconceived idea of how it "had" to look and for me, that was refreshing! Rhonda was informative and patient in explaining why were doing things a certain way and she left the artistic part up to me. She covered all the different materials she commonly uses. I appreciated all the recommendations and useful info on the materials. I feel confident I could create another geode all in my own now. Truly a relaxing process and a great self-care experience. Going to try to make it a girls night next time!

Wonderful owners, striving for promoting their artists and showing the amazing talents in our area!read more

I've loved art all my life, not just painting but all the mediums. After moving to the bayou just…read moreafter Katrina, I searched high and low to find a creative place, sadly none existed. Then one day I heard a gal taking at an Art Versus event that she would be opening an art studio and gallery in Thibodaux. It took me awhile to search it out. Then in April of this year I visited Stephanie Donaldson's space after an art walk in downtown Thibodaux. The Purple Penguin offers both classes for the young and young at heart (adults), as well as open studio time or a space to hang or display your art for sale. Stephanie and her staff offer group or private art classes, Corks and Brushes painting, paint your own pottery, hand building and wheel throwing ceramics, mosaic stained glass projects, raku, glass fusing and crafty projects. They also host Birthday parties, Bridal and Baby showers, Date nights (yep drop off your kids and they'll feed them, create with them, so you can sneak off for a few hours), Ghost nights (channel your Demi Moore/Patrick Swayze with this hot and heavy throwing night), Kids camps and more. As an artist i am always looking for new ways to bring my creative dreams to fruition. In California, I love working in ceramics and when I moved here I tried to find someplace that I could buy Kiln time. I searched high and low and eventually gave up. After discussing my needs with Stephanie, she explained that she offers several options to outside artists that allow them to work in the studio or in the comfort of their own studio and bring work in to have it fired. I at least had met my angel and was welcomed into heaven.....This is a great place to get your creative ya-ya's out......

I'm going 5* even though I don't know diddly about art...Stephanie is one cool lady...the stop in…read more3/6/13 was my 2d time meeting her and I've heard great things about her from mutual acquaintances... Her studio seems to be all one could hope for if one had an artistic bent...the studio contains several rooms devoted to different artistic disciplines from painting to pottery to glass work....They have already made pottery for you to purchase and paint/glaze or whatever you do with it...They also have some Oyster shells that have been glazed that one could use as serving trays for shucked raw oysters or for doing chargrilled ones...pretty neat! This seems like a real cool place and the people seem genuinely into having people get into & love art! Whether it be beginners or people with more skill!! If you're in Thibodaux or the immediate environs and are into creating or just thinking you might like to give it a whirl I suggest you make the PPAC your first stop!!!

Also, you may want to call first because this gallery is their home! This home is over 100 years old and has been completely renovated. Most of the furniture was made by Bill Rice himself or one of his son-in-laws (a very talented family). His paintings are on all of the walls in every room, his hand painted and hand carved carvings are all around in the decor. The wood sculpturesof the Louisiana water fowl are so real you would believe that he had mounted them himself (because he used to be a taxidermist). The sculptures are of Great Blue Herrin, White Egret or even hummingbirds in their nest! If everything goes as usual you will usually be invited to coffee (the best!) and home made spice cake or pumpkin bread or spiced tea. They like to visit and make you feel at home. You won't meet two nicer people than Bill and Loretta Rice. If you love Louisiana art like bayou scenes and wildlife and places that are just completely charming you won't want to miss this southern charmer!
