It was a great…read moreexperience for her and we were impressed by the quality of the instruction, the location (Pacific Design Center/We work), and the kid's' presentations. Camp leadership were communicative, positive, and supportive. The kids seemed to get a long well and there about 25 of them- a perfect number I think. Highly recommend!

My 16 year old son went to the photography summer camp and came away with a new confidence, not…read moreonly in his photography, but in who he is. I wanted him to learn more about photo pretty much to improve his Instagram...I was getting tired of only seeing his weird selfies and thought he could benefit from a little more perspective. From the first day I could see he started to understand the power of photography and perception. He made new friends and did some really wonderful portraiture and fashion photography. The most amazing part was the camp was held in the Leica studio! My son loved the staff and mentioned he liked the food too. I think he's really proud of the portfolio he put together during the camp and has come away with a great experience and some really awesome new connections.

We had an excellent experience at Little Kitchen Academy from drop-off to pick-up. Since parents…read morearen't in the session, I can't personally speak to everything that happens during class, but based on what my daughter shared, she had an amazing time. She told me she learned what it's like to run a kitchen from A to Z, which was both fun and educational. When I picked her up, she was all smiles and couldn't wait to tell me about everything she had learned. The staff was professional, friendly, and did an incredible job working with the kids. It was clear they created a positive, engaging, and supportive environment. We're so excited for her next class and look forward to seeing her continue to learn and grow at Little Kitchen Academy!

This has to be one of my favorite things to take my son to and his friends. It has been such an…read moreamazing experience for them. The confidence he has gained in the kitchen, to cook with me, has been so much fun to see. He is only 5 and he is cracking eggs like a pro.

All I can say is Wow! My (almost 6 year old) son has always shown an interest in & propensity for…read moreart. So when it came time to enroll in summer camps, I searched through the multitude of art camps, almost ignoring Kids Artistic Sense because it is housed in the near-barren Westside Pavillion. I am so glad that I decided instead to go check it out in person. Such a pleasant surprise. A most beautiful (and clean!) facility focused on real art (not piles of papers & craft projects that you don't know what to do with). Other activities like Legos, clay/kinetic sand, even an area for ball play so kids can shake their wiggles out! The most warm & encouraging staff, led by Miss Sandra who truly knew my son after his first visit. We started with a one-day trial on Memorial Day & ended up signing up for 3 weeks of summer camp. (2 of which are already sadly done). My son cannot wait to go back in July for his 3rd week & we are trying to rearrange our schedule to add another week. It is that special! Check out the paintings he is most proud of! And go check it out for yourself :)

They do a great job of letting kids express themselves, and at the same time teaching them about different artists and techniques. We had her birthday party there this year and it was AMAZING. The kids had a ton of fun and created beautiful individual paintings and a group painting. I highly recommend it. The staff were so helpful and made the experience fun for everyone. Many of the parents and kids said how much they enjoyed it. We ordered food Frida's Tacos in the mall and the food was delicious. You can order from any restaurant you choose which is another plus. I can say enough great things about them. :) Aloka 4/6/18 update It's now been two more years and our daughter and son have been going to kids artistic sense. They had so much fun doing camp over spring break. I posted the most recent picture. It's such a flexible option for breaks as you can do the days that work with your scheuxls

This camp helped my child come out of his shell and become more confident and outgoing, which has meant so much to us. We also hosted a party there, and our guests couldn't stop raving about it. Everything was fun, well-organized, and memorable. Highly recommend -- we'll definitely be back!

I was really hopeful about Tumbleweed Day Camp, but my experience trying to cancel has been…read morefrustrating and disappointing. We had to move out of the area and I notified the camp as soon as possible, asking to cancel and requesting a refund. I was told they don't offer refunds unless someone from the waitlist takes the spot--which would be fair if they actually tried. Despite multiple email follow-ups over several weeks and being extremely patient, no real effort was made on their end. I personally know someone on the waitlist for our session who never received a call or update. If the policy is dependent on the spot being filled, then it's the camp's responsibility to at least try to fill it. Parents--if you're considering this camp, just know that if anything changes, you'll be stuck. No flexibility, no proactive communication, and no accountability in their own process. And if you're on the waitlist, don't just wait for a call--because they may never make one. Be ready to chase them down. Really disappointed in how this was handled.

I can't begin to express what an amazing gem Art Rebel Studio is! We were trying to figure…read moresomething out for our daughter's 6th birthday party. We know we wanted to do some kind of art party but wanted to be unique. We found that at Art Rebel for a glow in the dark art party. Ponti, the owner, made this birthday so special for our 6 year old and all her friends. From the beginning he was so easy to work with and very communicative. Ponti has kids birthday parties down to a science with different activities planned out that all the kids loved! Him and his team handled it all while we got to relax and chat with other parents. On top of that, we didn't have to worry about goodie bags because all the kids went home with a couple pieces of glow in the dark art that they made. There was a separate, and massive, room for food and drinks so when cake cutting came around it was so easy. Also he made setting up and packing up so easy. If you're looking for something different and special for your kid's birthday, I can't highly recommend Art Rebel Studio enough!

The owner of Art Rebel is an amazing artist named ponti. He has an incredible business in Art Rebel…read morebut beyond that he himself is a iconic artist I had set decorated a 20th century fox show called Empire and I had reached out to him to give him the color, palette and size and had him do several custom paintings for Terrance Howard's office and other sets. He collaborated with me in regards to the colors that I needed and also some different styles. He has a amazing inventory of iconic art that I would urge anyone to ask him to see for purchase. Also, upon commission like I did with him for a show any Set Decorator or designer or person that loves art would love him. This particular character was Terrence Howard, who was a hip-hop Mogul in the story so the hip-hop vibe that is very much alive in pontia work was perfect. I can't say enough about his business Art Rebel because it is from adult fun to kids but extremely unique compared to a typical art business for corporations or birthday parties as it has an edge to it and is very hip and unique in the style that they present to the customer in Art Rebel! So much fun and you forget about your problems and very healing for me.
