So as with most of our summer camps, I have to go by what my daughter tells me and try to glean…read morewhat's going on based on minutes of being onsite during pickups and dropoffs. Our 7-year-old was here for a week this past summer. This camp seems to have a SimCity/Lego crossover thing going on, which I can totally get behind. Every day my daughter would talk about adding new buildings and bringing home a score sheet summarizing the state of her town (population, approval rating, money in the treasury, complaints and accolades from the townspeople). I came in one morning to find some escaped criminals holding up little speech bubbles. Looking around at all the little towns, there were some seriously impressive structures. After the week I downloaded Cities: Skylines (the computer game) and am looking forward to playing it.

My 8 and 10 year old daughter both loved this camp! Every day I picked them up, they were so…read moreexcited to show me all the things they had built. They seemed to really enjoy the civics nature of the building and telling me about why they had built particular structures to help their town. I was quite impressed by this camp that it turned out to be a great learning experience. I highly recommend it! I was a bit concerned when I signed up that this would be a mostly boy camp -- my daughters had some girl friends there with them and I noticed a few other girls there who we did not know. It seems like @ 30-40% girls that week, in case you are wondering. Though it didn't really make a difference as they work in small teams anyway.

We had such a great experience at Slime Kitchen thanks to Erik! We came in right before closing,…read moreand even though they had already sold out of the Rumi slime my son really wanted, Erik went above and beyond to help create something similar for him. He was so patient, kind, and made the whole experience really interactive and fun. My son was completely engaged the entire time and left so happy with what he made. He also loved the K-pop Demon Hunter stickers and keychains! You can really tell Erik cares about the kids having a great experience, not just making a sale. We didn't feel rushed at all, even though it was close to closing time. Highly recommend coming here--we'll definitely be back!

Sophia was great! Would definitely recommend to bring your kids to fill some time! Love Love Loveread more

My 10 year had the best time at Digtal Art camp this summer…read more You need to have a IPad, Apple pencil that is pressure sensitive and Procreate downloaded for camp. They learn about shading, creating 3D look, outlining and layering art. They provide snacks which she enjoyed since they had options like Oreo's and chips lol and I believe they go to the park daily which they have to walk 2 blocks to get to. The business has a shared parking lot so drop off is pretty easy but tends to be busier at pickup. On the last day the kids get to present their work and the teacher high lights what she loves about it. My only complaint is that we stood for a hour to go through all the kids work, it would be nice if half way through, the kids that are done can be excused to leave so that half the chairs would free up so the remaining parents could sit. At the end of the camp the kids get a token they can use on the class machine and a extra one for a Yelp review. I would totally do this camp again as I hear every is a different theme. Last year my friend daughter did making their own stickers.

It's hard to put into words my appreciation for the Clayroom and the community at large. It has…read moreopened up a whole new creative world for me that didn't exist before my first class. Yes I always wanted to try ceramics and yes, I thought I might have an affinity for it, but I never would have expected it to change so much in my life in a positive way. The instructors here are something special. They have a rare ability to meet you exactly where you are -- whether you're a complete beginner fumbling through your first attempt at centering clay or someone who's been coming for months and is ready to push their skills further. They're generous with their time, patient without being condescending, and genuinely excited about what they do. That enthusiasm is contagious. What made me decide to become a member is the community. There's a warmth here that's hard to manufacture -- people cheering each other on and lifting one another up. It's a space where you can step away from screens and noise and just make something with your hands, surrounded by people who get it. I didn't expect to find that when I signed up for a ceramics class, but I'm so glad I did.

Love love love!! I took a 6 week intro session here and I am totally hooked!! My instructor and…read moreTA (Lillian and Vivian) were both excellent - very patient in explaining and always welcomed questions and gave advice. Also shout out to the co-heads of studios as well, super well run. Clean, respectful and equipment is nearly new. I love the location as well as there is plenty of free parking. I plan to continue to additional sessions. 6 week intro class was $395 or you can book a try day session but strongly recommend the full six week session to learn good foundation and have studio time to learn at your own pace. Since starting, my feed and dreams are full of pottery ideas! Makes me so happy!!

We have had a great experience with Alla over the past 13 years. We enrolled our daughter in…read moreAlla's art class at the tender age of 4.5 and she still takes classes as a senior in high school. Next year she will be attending a premier art / design school with a substantial scholarship. We attribute a good portion of our daughter's success to the foundational skills developed and refined over the years under Alla's tutelage with many of the pieces in her admissions portfolio being developed with Alla's guidance. There are many great memories from over the years since we had Alla host birthdays, sent our children to summer camps and participated in group art excursions to Yosemite. Our middle school aged son attends Alla class and anticipate him continuing in the foreseeable future.

My sister and I loved coming to Alla's art camp when we were kids (about 15-16 years ago). It was…read moremy absolute favorite summer camp, I'd go every year that I could as a child. I'm so happy to see the art studio is still open and inspiring new kids. Thank you Alla!

My son loves Korin's Start the Art program. It is the highlight of his weekend. We've been coming…read morefor several months now and every weekend, Korin has a variety of art projects to keep my little guy busy and engaged. He usually gravitates towards the sensory bins, as they change weekly as well. I highly recommend Start the Art for any little hands that want to get artsy. All the materials are provided, so it's great for any parents that don't want to maintain a huge supply of arts and crafts. It's located in the Sanchez Art Center and there's plenty of parking.

This is a fabulous studio for kids and Korin was so amazing at helping my 3.5 year old daughter…read morefeel welcomed. I've been meaning to check this space out for a while and now I'm sad we waited so long - we will absolutely be back!!! I think it's a great value too - so many classes or activities on the peninsula are $25-$30/hour and that just feels like way too much!

My daughter had 15 friends join her for a paint party at netra studio. The teachers were absolutely amazing. They were so patient with all the kids and the paintings turned out so well. It's a really spacious studio with a kitchen, microwave and refrigerator incase you need to store any perishables for the party! We loved the whole experience and will be definitely back for more experiences like this.

I Have been taking adult art class with Inna for half year and making a lot of progress. Inna is an…read moreamazing teacher who tailors the teaching based on my level. I'm able to learn a lot from each session. For someone who has been learning painting from YouTube for two years, getting immediate feedback on my work makes a huge difference. Also, watching Inna doing demos are simply rewarding and nothing short of wonder. Furthermore, Inna creates an inspiring environment that makes me want to do better each time and also learn from each other. The class is both serious and fun. Although still new to the field, I now approach painting in a different and more principled way. Would highly recommend the class to anyone who is interested in pursuing art in any capacity.

I have been learning to paint at Art Academia for about 2 years. Inna is a really talented artist,…read moreshe is very knowledgeable, patient, polite and is a great teacher! With every class I learn something new and feel absolutely accomplished! Lessons have been focused on a wide variety of topics like landscape, still life, portraits, different techniques of painting with pallet knife, brush. You're welcome to use any medium as well! During this pandemic, Inna has been able to beautifully adapt to teaching online over zoom and gives personal attention, it's almost like a private class! I consider myself fortunate to have found Inna as my art teacher and I would highly recommend Art Academia to any one who is passionate about art and would want to learn and grow into an artist.
