I attended a Yelp elite painting class here and it was so much fun…read more They offer a huge schedule of art classes in all different mediums. I am planning to do some drawing and possibly more painting over the Summer. They offer kids classes too. We used water colors as the base today and she started by teaching several techniques, which was incredibly helpful once we started our abstract pieces. We also used pastels on top, which I thought added a really cool texture to my work. The teacher made each part seem so simple, everyone in the class was able to make something really beautiful. So much fun! Go check it out.

I was really excited to get in to the Yelp Elite event as I only just started to embroider January…read moreof this year. Being that the event was on a Saturday the parking lot was relatively empty so I didn't have to find street parking, but I did notice many of my classmates found street parking. No one complained do it must have been easy. The class was small and intimate with 8 of us present. The instructor Karin introduced us to the Art Students League of Denver, the offerings, and some history. We went around the room and discussed everyone's level of experience and interests. She really listened and worked to tailor our experience based on our responses. Each seat was set up with the materials we needed and we started off with introductory stitches. After an hour we focused on our Art piece and near the end of class picked up remaining supplies to finish our work at home. 10 mins before leaving we all did stretching exercises and cleaned up the room. I'd recommend attending if others are interested in learning something new or expanding their skill set.

My oldest daughter auditioned at DSA last winter and after several weeks of waiting for that letter…read moreto arrive it finally did and after screaming so loud she scared the tar out of our mailman the celebration began. Samantha had been accepted at DSA and her middle school career was about to begin! She has been at the school as a theater major for almost 8 months now and I must say, I am most impressed. Actually impressed doesn't quite cover it. I am completely and utterly floored, flabbergasted and blown away.... The talent here is ridiculous and like Colin mentioned in his review, DSA offers some of the most wonderful plays, musicals, concerts and dance productions in the entire Metro area. Last night's performance was a Broadway review which the kids will actually perform downtown tonight for a big fund-raising gala for The Kempe Foundation. There are simple not enough ways to describe just how talented these kids are and how spectacular the show was. As the first act began and the young lady opened her mouth, my God the sound that came out was quite literally unreal. To be so young and so gifted it was enough to bring a person to tears. Things got better from there, which is hard to believe considering it started out at FANTASTIC! There were dancers and singers and actors which easily rival anything on Broadway. Numbers from Annie, and Hair, Joesph and the Technicolor Dream coat, Hair spay, and several others, for 10 bucks. It was a night for the record books, and as a mama so full of pride and awe I must say... my baby kicked some series Broadway booty last night. Way to go kiddo! So if you are looking for some raw and insane talent for a very reasonable price and feel like contributing to a great, local and PUBLIC school in Denver, get yourself on their newsletter list and ENJOY!!! You'll be toe tapping and singing along I guarantee it!

Here are Denver's talented children. Brilliant and talented…read more Theater, song, dance, artists, cinema production, writing,stage techs. It covers all bases. If you have a child who has any interest in the arts, the academic program boasts a high college acceptance, and the talent is boundless. If you get an opportunity to see a show, it is likely you are going to get the glimpse of a future world talent. Great environment! The only issue I have with the school is the parking lot... Dear God, please give these people a piece of land so that they don't have to park on the grass and in intersections. If you build it, they will come.

I'm an online senior at this school. Going into it I didn't expect much from this school because it…read morehas a 100% acceptance rate, but when you actually look close at the materials and curriculums and how they're designed, it's just like any other high quality art and design schools. They're rigorous enough to let you stick to a certain regiment, yet flexible enough to let you be nurtured and to explore your own creativity and your own unique way of doing things. Just like any other college, you actually have to try and to make the most of your time here, so if you're looking to go to this school not really sure what you want, this isn't the place for you. People here are dedicated and know their shit, so your job is to match that and share your own knowledge and bring your own unique experiences to the table. Some professors will push you hard, most are pretty flexible. Talk to them. Ask valuable questions, make sure you put 100% into every class, in the end you'll thank yourself for it. I know I did. Graduating this summer! Best of luck to you all!

First they said they would send me an email once new classes opened up (never happened). And after scouring the internet for a phone number, since they don't list one on their site, I finally got on their email list after I spoke with someone on the phone. I showed up for my first class on March 3rd at 10:00 am in the Prudential Center and no one was there. I waited 30 minutes and no one showed up. Another girl was also waiting with me. I work in the Prudential Center so I'm positive I had the right meeting spot. Not only that, but if the class was cancelled I received no notification. I paid $30 to park and spent an hour getting there and there was no class! I got there 10 minutes early so there is no way I would have missed a class of 10 people with cameras walking around. For the past 2 weeks I've called, left messages and emailed Chimpsy but no one has responded to me. I'm writing this review because it seems like this is the only way you can get a response from someone. At this point, I'm doubting if this company is real and I want my money back!
