Literally, two days later and no service has been provided (the class doesn't start for weeks). I was told it's part of their terms. When I reminded her I have never been provided her terms, not did I make any agreement to them, she emailed me a copy of the terms. I would not do business with any school this shady.

I found the place to be industrial and uninspiring, the people are not friendly (I've actually never experienced a less than friendly ceramics community until I came to Cascade Ceramics) and the "Birdbath" workshop I attended was over-hyped, under-taught and over-priced. The pieces made in the workshop were more like small, handbuilt plates for bees and butterflies than something you would expect to serve as an actual bath for birds.

As a Retiree, I recognized early on that I needed establish a focus to carry me through the remained of my life. The Springs offered its residents an introductory art class.

Staff - the owner Ann and our teacher, Christina are absolutely amazing. 2 of our kiddos attended their classes for ~3 years and we loved the overall experience. Use of different medias, the overall process, availability of camps and even showcasing your kids' artwork at the local library or Art Center - are all amazing things that we experienced here. Our kids absolutely loved coming in and spending every Monday creating. COVID was a challenge for everyone, but Ann and Christina put together an amazing plan to engage with students virtually. While most extra curriculum activities (i.e. sports) were not available, Mosaic Arts Loft provided needed activity to our kids and they were looking forward to their weekly classes. If you are looking at options for your kids in the area - I highly recommend them. You will not regret and your kids will enjoy creating masterpieces that you will be able to proudly display in your home and gift to friends and families. Thank you!!!
