River Oaks is much more than an Art Gallery. It's also artist's studios, entertainment space,…read moreeducational space, etc. They offer classes throughout the year. My only complaint regarding the classes is that the children's classes are offered primarily in the summer. We homeschool, and we would love to have access to year-round children's classes. Edited to add: My husband and daughter took a parent-child ceramics class at River Oaks when my daughter was about 2 1/2 years old. She's now 6 1/2 - to my knowledge, they've yet to do another class like that (with younger children). I really wish they'd consider starting parent-child classes again. Both my daughter and husband had a blast and still speak fondly of the time they spent together there.

Michelle the owner, is very patient and goes to great lengths to explain the processes involved before and during the glass blowing. You can tell Michelle enjoys glass blowing and that passion makes the class even better. Quinn was very helpful and answered a lot of questions I had about glass blowing. I highly recommend this experience. There are all sorts of items you can make, from ornaments, snowmen, pumpkins, glasses and more. Thank you Michele and Quinn for a great experience! We will be back. And after your glassblowing experience, you can enjoy a beer at Red River BrewPub. (The experience takes place in the brewery.)

Common sense would have told you well there's 4 so let's split the difference. 2/4 is okay, 3/5 is okay... but 3/4! This is cruel, this is hurtful & what you did was tell a vulnerable impressionable kid; they are not good enough but everyone else is. Life is absolutely not fair, but what this did today was single a KID out like a bully. You were a grown adult bullying a kid today it's disgusting. I purchased 4 out of the 8 seats at this event & I was truly disappointed!! I will never spend money here again & will be sure no family or friends will either. This is unacceptable practices. Responded via email & Facebook to give them an opportunity to even just apologize for this horrible form of bullying a child! No response is a response. We have to many other places similar that will happily take my money & not single a kid out.

Just ask them what they have to offer for when you want to book your event. I did a quick booking so there wasn't a lot to choose from since it was last minute. I was still happy with what they were able to offer us for a small company Christmas party. We got to make a resin Christmas tree with shard glass. I mean the amount of options were mind blowing. I just wanted to keep making more and more but I did two different ones, three if you count my sons but he pretty much was able to follow along with the directions and the only help was when we were mixing the resin. The owner was our instructor and she was very patient with us and helped us with our visions. Our event was at her studio and it can hold up to about 10 with some space. If you have a larger group please let them know and they will advise what can be worked out. They don't just do resin they also have paint, jewelry making, mosaic and other things just ask them. This place is a great way to learn about different art creations and techniques. They offer some workshops you can sign up to for. Just visit their website to see what has been added. I had a great experience and it was super easy to understand and learn. Just check out her website for additional information
