She's loved Little Art House so much we even decided to have her 5th birthday party there. Her party was such a success! My daughter said it was "tons of fun" and her favorite birthday party yet! It was customized to suit her needs and interests perfectly. The hosts were excellent at helping set up and keeping the children engaged throughout the party. With such a variety of classes and activities, there is something for everyone of all ages at Little Art House. We look forward to many more to come and are happy to support this small woman owned business!

I co-work a lot, so there are two main things I look for:…read more Outlets Parking This place is great at 1/2 of these things. Parking is perfect. Plenty of room to park. They have started doing a little better about having outlet options, but mainly at those tall, long skinny tables. The ones that aren't necessarily great for working because they're so high up and can make your legs feel weird after awhile. Haha. The other semi complaint I have is that they close early. 3 pm is early when you want to try and work. Drinks are good. I don't drink a ton of coffee these days, but what I've had there was good. I get either their chai or matcha. Both of those I enjoy! I had a sandwich there recently. I wanted to roll my eyes at the price truthfully. However, when it came.. WOAH. It was GIANT. I was thoroughly impressed. It was really really good. I had to take half of it home and put it in the fridge. When I came back home hours later... it was STILL GOOD. The bread was not soggy either! That's HUGE! Ok so overall, I highly recommend this place and it's one of my go to spots.

I'd still consider going back since they're open fairly late, which I really appreciate. There's a small parking lot next to the shop, which is convenient.

The studio is absolutely beautiful and the class was very easy for all levels as they said. The staff and owner were wonderful and very helpful. I am definitely going back for another workshop. Please remember that it will take some time to get your pieces back, as it requires time to dry and then bake. They estimated 3 weeks. They ship or if you're local, you can pick up your pieces. Overall this class is great if you want to be creative and make some keepsake items. Loved every minute of it!

It has small offices and studios for rent, and a large co-working space (think Starbucks without the expensive coffee).

Tours are free, shop memberships are available at www.forthouston.org

This is by far one of the most exciting places I've reviewed. As someone who LOVES making art,…read morewalking into this space is like a kid in a candy-shop. Branded as a "makerspace", memberships start at $150/mo and cap at $500/mo. Open 24 hours a day (to members only), this is the perfect resource for artists looking to get their business of the ground without the commitment of purchasing studio-space. The shops include screen-printing, metal work, and wood. You can use your reserved space for pretty much any type of art if you don't want your livingroom overflowing with tools and clutter. You are responsible for providing all material supplies, the equipment is the responsibility of the establishment. While some might have a hard time justifying the cost of a membership, I personally don't have the funds to purchase the equipment they allow members to use for free. For me, this is the key selling point. There is a gallery on site and a cafe which features some of the artists work on its walls. During off-hours the space can be used an event space. Scheduling and availability is all done online. All in all, it's a very straight forward agreement, and a fun space to collaborate with other artists.
