The space is bursting with color and beautiful artwork and feels comfortable and inviting. Liliana and her mother, Mercedes, were wonderful and provided as much or as little assistance as each person wanted. We had 10 adults and 3 teens, and everyone had a fabulous night!

My kids have done summer camp at Big Picture Art House for two years now and have really enjoyed…read moreit. They learned a lot more about photography than I expected them to in just one week, and they came home with lots of cool pictures to share with us. The outings that they do in and around Boston are great - they would be cool field trips even without the photography part. It's a great option for middle school aged kids who have grown out of some summer camp options. My kids have enjoyed it at ages 11 through 15. I highly recommend Big Picture and will definitely be sending my kids again next year.

This is a fantastic camp. I have had 2 different children attend Big Picture in different years,…read moreand it has been a truly unique experience for them. The kids travel around daily to many different locations in Boston and surrounding areas in small groups for photographic inspiration and fun. They also have daily downtime in the artist space. We loved the small group aspect and the individual attention. One of my children has some significant social issues, and I 100% felt that the owner Jennifer really listened and worked to accommodate my child. I was beyond pleased. This was my daughter's favorite camp of all the camps she has attended over the years, hands down. Highly recommend!

This is a great children's art studio in Middleboro. Easy to get to right from the rotary.

At the end of the year they hold a wonderful art show at the Middleboro library with all of the children's art work on display. The classes are fun and the teachers are wonderful. The artists also travel to you for children's birthday parties. They offer beautiful face painting and fun balloon animals to make your child's party speci

I was most impressed by the amount of lifeguards available at the pool. The other parents complimented their attentiveness and courtesy towards the kids.

RUDE! The lifeguards were in bad mood, not very friendly. And I won't have my son's party there again. They had the kids do the swim test, even if they passed, the kid/lifeguard wouldn't allow them to swim in the deeper end. Why are there 4 lifeguards there for then? NOT SURE Then, they tell you you don't have to bring paper plates and napkins, etc. Which is great, but they are very stingy in the amount they put it out. And the only option for food is papa ginos. Oh boy!

Overpriced babysitting. Sent my child (10 years old) to this camp over the summer because after…read morereading through the entire website, believed I was paying a premium price to get her next level art lessons or at least to try the pottery wheel and/or use different kitchen tools. The campers were not allowed to use either. They did "miniature" day, every day with either cooking or creating clay objects. She was only allowed to use a small amount of any product. She did not have fun and was bored. She was doing way more art projects at another regular day camp (at a quarter of the cost). After reading all the great reviews, we were really disappointed. If all you want is baby sitting, you will most likely like this place but if you have a budding artist, looking for something a little extra, suggest looking elsewhere.

My son started attending Merry Deb in September 2022 after we moved to Weymouth from Cambridge…read morebased on a recommendation from a former co-worker. He was in the pre-school room as it was his last year before starting kindergarten. It was such a great experience. Not only did it prepare him for kindergarten (writing his first and last name, eating lunch within 30 minutes, etc) but he learned so much through the other programming (Black History month, Women's History month). He adores every single teacher and director at Merry Deb, and he was so excited to get to go back for "summer camp" for a few weeks this summer in between the other camps he is attending. If you are looking for a pre-school in the area, I cannot recommend Merry Deb highly enough!
