Took a glass arts class with Eric with my best friend. This was the most amazing arts class I have…read moreever took. Not only did we get to do almost 100% of the work ourselves, we both ended the class with 3 pieces!! Eric is so patient and his customer service cannot beat. Truly an amazing teacher and guy. Definitely worth the money as it is a fully private 3 hour long class. Great options of what to make. HIGHLY recommend.

Eric is a great teacher and by the end of the lesson I felt as if I had really gotten the hang of it. His lessons are a hidden gem of Boston and I totally recommend them to others who want to learn to make glass art. Eric doesn't work with full-scale furnaces but with pretty intense mounted torches. However i think this was just as cool and I would absolutely come back again.

Recently, I went as part of a work outing. We ordered a couple of bites and drinks at the bar, and…read moreit was a really fun time learning how to paint. Although I never really love my painting at the end (because I'm a poor painter), the entire experience is still very enjoyable! The instructors are helpful and will come around if you need anything.

I came here for a date night last weekend and had such a great time painting these little Pikachu's…read morefor Valentine's. The paint was pre-provided for us which was really nice and our instructor was also super friendly and attentive. I will say that you only get 2 hours per session which was enough for this simple painting but I could definitely see not being enough time for more complex landscape paintings. So, if finishing your painting here is important I would keep that in mind. In addition to the painting, we also got food and wine which was decent but definitely not the highlight of our time here.

Awesome place for a fun crafternoon!…read more I came with a few friends on a rainy day to do a project, and had never done anything with mosaics before. We bought about 3 hours of time which is really the minimum amount of time it will take for a project. They had all of the supplies and colors and textures you could ever want and helped us every step of the way! It was about $15/hour plus the cost of the actual item you are putting the mosaics on. And note, you will need to let the tiles dry for 24 hours and grout it at home (if you are not local and can't return) The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, and it was a great experience.

The theater was comfortable, for short legs for short duration. Went outside during a break, security in this direction, turned around, security in that direction. Don't know what that was about. Overall, can't say it was worth the travel time to visit. Maybe I just caught it at the wrong time.

I am not the most crafty person (far from it), but they were able to help this guy make a beautiful Christmas present (wine carrier in my case) with pre-set or custom designs. They made it fun (full of coffee / tea + cookies), while there is this borderline addictive painting and gluing. Oh and the staff is super helpful and happy to work with you through all your color decisions / gluing troubles. Great for: 1. Friend bonding 2. 7th date 3. lazy day 4.

We all laughed so, so much. The bride said it was the highlight of her weekend! Nobody really knew what to expect - most of us can't draw at all - but it was all relaxed and lighthearted and proved to be a great way to gently bring some quieter girls out of their shells. Several girls even came away thinking they might start life drawing classes! If you're trying to come up with a good bachelorette activity, I'd urge you to consider this.

This was so much more fun than I anticipated!…read more Sabrina (hostess/art teacher/lovely woman) led us through a fun filled 2 hours of my first ever nude sketching session! She was upbeat, informative, respectful to both the sketchers (us) and the models. Made sure there were no photography during class unless it's through them to make the models comfortable. (takes guts to be nude in front of a bunch of people drinking and looking at you!) She brought out the artistic sides of everyone in the room, guided us through different sketching exercises (1-3-5 minute sketch sessions) so we're busy drawing instead of JUDGING what we were drawing. such helpful tips! I think we were all VERY impressed with our own artworks! I really thought I'd be drawing a little more than stick figures before coming here. I had a blast and this would make any gathering unique, fun and explorative! I had an amazing time!
