Potts N Paints offers 2 locations - VB and Chesapeake. This location is convenienty located in a strip shopping center near Lynnhaven Mall with ample parking. The space is huge with lots of private tables. They have a huge selection of pottery with prices ranging based on size and a ton of tools to use - not just the standard brushes. On this visit though, my daughter wanted to splatter paint. There is a separate room for getting - literally - as messy as you want. A blank canvas welcomes creativity! Once suited up with a poncho, goggles and shoe covers, it's a free for all. You can even slingshot paint-soaked sponges! The even have a bicycle-powered splatter table to make cool centrifuge designs. It's a great spot to let the imagination run wild. It's a little pricey at $50/canvas but it made for great memories for my little girl. And she has a long-lasting memento to hang on her wall. Staff was so kind and helpful during our visit, offering instruction and guidance when needed. It's also a great place to consider hosting a birthday party, girls outing, team building event, etc. This is a fun place to spend an hour or two!

This is on North Mall Drive next to Lynnhaven Mall. Quickly becoming my favorite place to come…read more #1 Service is super helpful and friendly. Marissa is so wonderful about explaining everything. There are endless options of projects to make. You do not need to be creative or an artist or have any kinds of skill. You just need to be willing to make something. OUR group was all skill levels from no skill to totally skilled. We all had a blast. This is not your typical ceramic pots and paint anymore. It is AWESOME!!! Things they offer. *Pottery-- they offer a huge wall of various bisque and everything that you can think of including glazes, open paint bar, stamps, stencils and paint pens. They also fire the pieces after you glaze them. So you paint them and leave them to get fired and then you pick them up after the items are ready. *Canvas--You can pick any size and pick whatever design you want to paint. They have predrawn canvases available, Or you can schedule a class. They have an open paint bar. *Clay--They have all kinds of tools to work with clay for hand-building. They also offer Pottery Wheel sessions. *Glass fusing art--They have a wonderful assortment of colors and types of glass to make a completed glass fused project. *Mosaics--they have a pretty good selection of tile and colors and wood shapes to complete a project. The best part about POTTS N PAINTS is that you have endless options of things to choose from. One person can choose glass fusing art and another person can choose to paint a ceramic plate . You are not stuck making all the same thing. Like I said you have endless options. This is my new favorite place to hang out. Don't worry about getting messy. They have a wall of aprons to cover up your clothes. You can bring any drinks that you want even alcoholic drinks. For my husband I took him a beer because it was his birthday. And everyone needs a birthday beer(LOL) We opted to just walk in and make different projects but you can book parties and join classes. If you have questions like I did you can call or just walk in and find out how it all works. I'm totally in love with this place not only for all the super cool projects but because of the amazingly friendly and helpful staff. And they were playing really good music too.

​ I've driven past this gallery for years and I've always…read morewanted to visit. I usually passed by after business hours unfortunately or when they are closed on Sunday. The other conundrum was missing the location. I got out of work early and was very much intent on visiting so I drove very slowly looking for it and I still missed it. So watch carefully and put your turn signal on early. I'm so glad that I finally made it here. The amount of beautifully crafted fine art on display astounds me. There are so many pieces in here but it does not feel overwhelming or cluttered in this multi-level gallery. The art is varied, so many different mediums and subject matters. The art is stunning, beautifully curated; I'm in awe of the skill of these amazing artists and disappointed that I haven't come sooner. What did I miss on display 6 months ago? A year ago? After an inquiry, the lovely lady at the front desk informs me that the items on display partially turn over about every three months, and after 6 months pretty much everything is new. I'm really excited to see what will be here later this year. I appreciate Deborah taking the time to chat with me twice, upstairs she gave me a little background on an artist whose work I was admiring (Jordan) and downstairs chatting about my background and my desire to be more creative and do more art. If you are an appreciator of fine art come in and peruse. If you are looking for a beautiful piece for your home, office or for a gift come prepared to buy. Pieces most liked from visit#1: Turtle Sea, Finnesse, and this lost wax cast bronze woman/angel on a rotating base (she's on display twice because she can be cast with or without wings).

But this facility is a stand-alone building with studios and classrooms and a beautiful, clean, light filled little gallery space. It's free to get in -- anyone walking by can check out the art inside. I'm just not sure how many people actually do. Maybe because they think it's just a building for students. Make a point to pop in next time you're Olde Towne. They have changing exhibits with work by professionals, faculty and students.
