It started out bad from the moment we arrived. We were completely ignored by the people working…read morethere, so we just stood there waiting for direction. Finally someone sitting at a table told us what to do. After about 15 minutes, one of the people working there came over to us and began giving us directions on how to work with the clay and a few utensils they had to use on the clay. He kept saying, just do whatever you want to do with the clay, and we didn't know what our options were "to do with the clay". When I asked for examples of what we could do, they really had no examples, and he pointed to work that was on the shelves that other people had done. It was very frustrating. We felt like little kids given some play doh. So we were supposed to get a call when our projects were done, no phone call. I finally called and our projects had been done a couple weeks prior. When I went to pick them up, they were on a shelf outside the studio, so I had no interaction with anybody when I went to pick our projects up. I would not suggest anyone go to this studio. They run it like a kids play doh class??

This time I was with a great friend from over 20+ years of friendship. One of our loves... crafting and the other.... our sweet puppies came into play during this activity.

Not to mention that the setup in the facility is accessible for moving around and if you need assistance, Dawn is there to help! Wonderful place for a school trip, girls day off, husband and wife crafting time, date night fun. You won't be disappointed.

My older son went to a glass mosaics class over the summer. Both Marcia and Rebecca are state certified art teachers. I know they have worked in the public schools and have an excellent reputation because it was a school teacher that recommended them to me. They are very patient and recognize the artist in all of us. They offer several different classes and for all age ranges. I know they do private parties for ladies nights out and birthdays, but they also have classes for homeschool groups and pre-k's. On school holidays, they'll only a special project. In the evenings they have mostly grade school level classes in sculpting, mixed media, painting, and later in the evening they offer manga and more advanced sketching classes. You can pay by the class in some cases, or by the session, or for the whole term. Payment can all be handled online, which I really appreciate. All in all, this little studio has been the perfect fit for my son who is into comics and we don't have to drive over to COCA in St. Louis anymore. I feel like this studio has serious enough artists to keep him engaged through high school.

It truly is a playground for kids young and not so young. Playing there reminds me of when I was a young kid making mud pies - I now remember how much fun it was to squish the mud and water in my hands till it held its shape and then patting the "dough" into a form and finishing with "sprinkles" and then baking my cake in the sun. I love that I can still do that at the LampLight! I'm new to throwing clay pots and at my first time at the LampLight, I was surprised that it wasn't as easy as it looks, even with the fine equipment. However, the instructor was very knowledgeable and patient with me and now I can get my bowl to stay upright and not go all wobbly :) The LampLight Studio is definitely worthy - SUPERWORTHY in fact!
