It is incredibly generous and helpful, and I always have people answering my questions Quickly and thoroughly and offering to help. I also appreciate the incredible diversity of what the space has to offer from woodworking to metal shop to text style to 3-D printing to even a airplane simulation station. Oh, I forgot to mention the whole reason I joined is for access to their two CO2 lasers, which have made many beautiful art pieces for me, my family and friends homes. The membership rate is nothing compared to what you get access to and the amount of support and community available.

They help you purchase the kits and then give you printed cards with instructions to follow. We did the bracelet making activity. It was fun but the place was so loud! The music was loud and there is lots of banging (from leather making crafts I think). It's definitely a party in there. I enjoyed it but I was a little on edge. Just be prepared if you are sensitive. They have a bar and serve drinks (alcoholic and nonalcoholic). Overall, it was a fun night out

It was pretty packed. The place itself is incredible, definitely more of a "coolest mall I've ever been to" vibe than your typical mall. There are so many unique shops, from books to specialty stores, a liquor store, and even a lounge with a pool table. We tried Maria's Empanadas, which I've been wanting to try forever, and it definitely was everything I hoped it'd be. So many delicious varieties. Everything was fresh and delicious. I also had a watermelon drink and a pistachio cookie, and everything was perfect. We also had some smoked mac and cheese at the barbecue spot, it was okay, a little too peppery and not as fresh as I'd hoped, but overall the food experience was nice. Walking around and exploring all the different spots was a blast. We'll definitely be back!

There was trendy/cool music playing in the background and the space was nice because there were lots of arts-and-crafts tools laying all around. My only objection is how expensive the class is.
