I LOVE Downtown Fayetteville!! There are so many cool little places to stop in and there is so much…read morehistory. I have enjoyed all the many restaurants, and all the boutique shops every time I am in the area. I make it a point to come down at least once a week. Some of my favorite places are in the tree lined street downtown. There is ample parking in lots and also along the streets. There are also so many things to do! If you want to paint pottery or make candles or have a paint and wine night or go to trivia or an escape room! All followed by some delicious food. There are festivals all the time, as well as farmers markets and parades galore. It reminds me of the small-town areas you see in movies. Let's all keep downtown thriving!!

The Fayetteville Area Transportation and History Museum is located in Downtown Fayetteville. They…read morehave a free parking lot for two hour parking. If that lot is full there is another lot by the Museum Annex. Admission is also free. The Museum is inside a restored railroad depot for the Cape Fear and Yadkin Valley Railroad. The museum displays have a lot to read if you choose or you can just look at the artifacts, so make sure to give yourself enough time. The museum covers many topics from fashion to banking to the railroad to the Cape Fear River to Civil War to law enforcement to the fire department to books about Fayetteville. Each topic has a section for you to learn about. The museum is on two levels and you can use the stairs or take the elevator. The Museum Annex is a short walk away and had displays with vintage cars; a gas station; an 1880 Steam Pump Engine and provides history about the fire department. Make sure to check out both buildings of the museum. I enjoyed my visit to this museum and some of the exhibits rotate so I need to go back again.

It's free admission and is worth checking out to get a better feel of the significance of…read moreFayetteville. Who knew that Fayetteville had so much to do with transportation? I sure didn't and definitely learned a thing or two from here. Also, there is a small Farmer's Market on Saturdays mornings that has about 4-6 vendors selling some produce, art, and canned goodies.

New to Fuquay Varina, this gallery was so refreshing to the soul. Framed Original paintings and…read moresculptures and pottery that is so beautiful from local and afar.

Great place to shop art for your home !

Really excellent art gallery! Many original pieces covering a wide range of artists (ALL are super…read moretalented) and styles. There is also a large collection of very nice, framed giclee prints, if your budget doesn't stretch for an original. The owner, Rick, is very nice and helpful. A complete jewell of a gallery! I have been looking at art galleries in downtown Raleigh, trying to buy a few original pieces, and have been incredibly frustrated. This one is so much better than anything else I've seen! Yes, I did buy some original art!

They tell you that you will be emailed when it's ready and should be ready in two days. Two days go by, three days go by and then you make a phone call to which you get no response. Then you email, again no response. Call again leave a message, no response. Stop by during the hours of business no one there. Call the corporate office and there are so many messages the mailbox is full. Call again and finally get a text back stop by and pick up projects. it shouldn't be this hard to pick up things that you have paid for or to get communication back. Won't go back ever

I recently ordered a door hanger DIY kit on 8/15. In an attempt to check on the status of my kit, I…read morewas told that it would be arriving 9/2 or 9/3 due to shipping notifications that this store received. On 9/4 when I tried to contact the store to schedule a pick up, I received the run around about when my kit would be delivered to me. I advised that I was willing to pick up to which they opted to ignore. This morning (9/5), I initiated contact again to attempt to schedule a pick up and was told that my kit wouldn't be arriving until 9/9 and was met with a bit of an attitude. The person I spoke with (assuming it's Amanda) is unprofessional and could use some customer service and communication training. I've frequented plenty of wine and design's throughout the triangle but this location will never get a penny of my money.

I was so tired of going to the faddish wine and paint classes. I mean, it's a fun night out, but I…read moredidn't want the same painting as 20-30 other people. I want to be original and I think art and painting should be your own. Looking up painting instructors in Fayetteville was a challenge, but Sandra's name popped out so I decided to give it a try. For the same price and time as the wine and paint classes, it's such a steal for private classes. I have been taking classes with Sandra now for about a year now, and I love it! She is an incredible artist and an even more incredible teacher. She has a heart of gold and really cares about everyone! And only amazing art is produced out of her tiny studio, you will leave with an original masterpiece :) If you are lucky enough to snag a slot in her busy schedule, you will not be disappointed.

What a great place for a date night and the vibe in the studio really allowed us to un-WINE! The…read moreartist we had was so nice and her assistant was also very helpful to all the customers making sure we weren't too far off on our paintings haha Price: Extremely affordable date Night location. $50 for two and BYOB! Price includes two separate paintings that you and your significant other will paint in class. Ambience: Well lit in order to work on your masterpiece. It was neat how the date night class was separate from the bigger room that was utilized for more of an actual painting class. My wife and I painted two separate paintings but when we put them together it made one big painting. Drink as much wine as you want during the class and good conversation with other customers. Very laid back atmosphere with music and outgoing staff. I look forward to returning here in the future.

I like the idea of this but our experience tonight was not great. There are two rooms for painting…read more One is a big, bright, room. The easels are set up with plenty of rom between them and the music is playing in it. Next to that room is a tiny little side room with a long table and all of the easels are crammed next to each other. There was barely room between each easel for us to put our mason jars with water for the paintbrushes. Our instructor went WAY too fast so we all just ended up doing our own thing. Meanwhile the group in the other room was listening to music laughing and having a great time. I feel like it would have been a much more enjoyable experience if we weren't stacked on top of each other and if we didn't feel like outcasts from the other group. I'll probably be sticking to the beads and brushes in Aberdeen after this class.
