Pretty much going to echo all the sentiments in the previous review by Erin S.! This Yarn store is…read moreSUPER DUPER posh in my book. Was in the Fairport area on a Saturday. The store is located in an office park, and I must admit that I find the location superb for a yarn-o-holic like myself. It is quiet with ample parking making it perfect for an open knitting session with your friends :-) Though I also find that little yarn nooks in commercial districts are super cute too. They just have this cool nerdy chic way of standing out. Apart from Madeline Tosh, Yarn Culture carries indie yarns not available to other Local Yarn Stores as covered on the previous review. The store is very neat and organized with good lighting...VERRRY important for open knitting. I am looking forward to my next visit...and yarn haul!

Juniper is a new gift shop in the Titus/Hudson area of Irondequoit. It's bigger than it looks, and…read morehas gifts for everyone (including you! treat yourself!). They carry Rochester swag by local artisans (I saw Boomtown Creative, House of Roushey, and Ink & Pine Design), the occasional antique item, as well as general cute and useful goods you'd expect from a well-curated gift shop. Visit Juniper if you need cards, jewelry, tote bags, kids toys, scarves, kitchen accessories, pillows, coffee mugs, or wall decor. The owner/operator is really friendly and made us feel welcome when we stopped in looking for Christmas gifts. You can also shop online and pick up curbside. At the time of this review, Juniper is open Wed by appt, and Thurs-Sun.

Oh my gosh this sewing shop is the best!! They not only sell fantastic sewing machines but they…read morehave classes, and that opened up a new world for me. When I go there I have so much fun looking at all the beautiful fabrics. ( I loose track of time) I have never had a fabric or tools for sewing that were not well made. I love pfaff sewing machines. That's part of the reason I still love to sew. The rest is the support, great service and friendships that come from this really cool shop in Fairport.

If you aren't looking for clay, you'll find jewelry items and knick knacks as well! Everything is reasonably priced. And great strong quality. If you make a purchase, try to find things around the store marked free! They have different things each day. Many of them are just small trinkets but they're cute as can be! My last few trips fell during their seconds sale. Basically, starting the second Saturday of the second month (Feb), a ton of local products are on sale for more than 50% off. The sale lasts for about a month and the items get restocked regularly. If you sign up for their VIP texting program, you can get coupons and additional discounts as well! Such a cute place! Right next to simply crepes!

Friendly staff! One-of-a-kind items-- beautiful and unique, yet reasonably priced. The items I…read morepurchased were made by local artists. I would love to keep this place my secret, but feel an obligation to share this awesome shop with everyone. Only one problem-- if someone like me buys the same stuff you like, you will have to wait until the artist brings in more.

The Flower City Arts Center is an amazing community space offering art opportunities for ALL…read morepeople: with classes for youth (pottery classes for ages 3 and up, teen classes, workshops and summer camps) and adults, for every level (beginner, intermediate and advanced), in several disciplines (photography, book arts and ceramics, plus offerings in drawing and painting) there is something for everyone! In the years since covid, the FCAC has not only survived, but they have thrived! Thanks in large part to a generous and supportive community of members and students, luck with grants, and a dedicated staff, they have weathered two leadership changes, have innovated with online course offerings and collaborations, and have upgraded the facility's security and air exchange systems to ensure a safe and healthy environment for all students, teachers, members, staff and community attendees. If you haven't visited in a while there are lots of things going on: -- check out exciting new class listings each quarter - weekend workshops, multi-day/week classes, artist talks -- join us on a First Friday when the galleries are open (and free!), highlighting local talent -- take part in our upcoming Flower City Pottery invitational (this year, Oct 13-15, 2023) - a 3-day ceramics event featuring artist talks, demos and a large and eclectic variety of items for sale -- Watch for community collaborations like the Clarissa Uprooted - Pythodd Tribute Mural Unveiling & Celebration on Main Street, in conjunction with Teen Empowerment The FCAC is a place I not only love and support (in case you can't tell from this review and my two others...), but as a 24/7 renter, I actively use the space too. I'd love to see more of your faces there - next time you are around ask for me and tell them I sent you!

I was sent to Intro to Adobe Illustrator by my work, and had the best experience. There was a ton of content crammed into our semester, and I now confidently create advertisements, eblasts, and social media content for my organization in Illustrator exclusively. Working in Illustrator can often be frustrating, but Jeremy (the instructor) answered my questions with grace, patience, and a sense of humor. A gift certificate to this center makes for a great gift! There is a wide variety of class offerings, and many opportunities to push yourself or someone you love out of their comfort zone. Nonprofit art centers like Flower City are the backbone of ROC, and make it the cultural beacon that it is. I hope to someday become a member and make use of this facility on a more regular basis.

Sabra Wood is a clever clay artist and you may have seen her celebrity mugshot mugs around local boutiques such as Shop Peppermint. If you are ever in the studio, you can spot the artist immediately by the cute cat ears diadem she wears. She really is the sweetest human in the building and always has awesome snacks! I recommend planning a visit on this Holiday season for some local shop love and gift procurement. Your loved ones will appreciate all the quirky and funny puns.
