Not the true story that tristan wrote .. true story is I had an big first event and not even carying just stacked my paintings on top of each other for No one to see them Honesty ' that upset me because I worked really hard on one of them having a new baby it was pretty difficult.. it was my first big art event that's what happened .. and seeing that when I was soo Excited I didn't even care bout winning I just cared bout my paintings being shown just shattered me seeing that not even leaning them against a wall just in some corner stacked against each other I honestly ' wouldn't even give this place any stars if it was up to me All of this happened because I didn't have the right hooks it doesn't matter you don't get someone's hopes dreams up then shatter them like it's nothing .. read more

I've been to Cape Fear Studios several times in the last few weeks for my daughters' art classes. I've been consistently impressed by the gallery, which contains everything from pottery to paintings to jewelry. The art is not only beautiful, but reasonably priced -- and geared towards local artists. As for the art classes, I have been deeply impressed with my daughters' instruction. Both of my girls have always exhibited artistic talent and it is difficult to find age appropriate classes where they can be challenged. This class has been different - they did cover some things they already knew, but they quickly moved into areas neither were familiar with. I'm thrilled with how much they have improved in just a few short weeks. I would definitely suggest Cape Fear Studios to those looking to purchase local art or anyone looking for challenging art classes for children. read more
