    Ornaments we made with the take home kit
    Steffany I.

    Petroglyph is still one our favorite activities to bring the kids. More recently we found out about their take home kits! They had large kits at $110 and small kits at around $60. The large kits came with 10 ornaments of various designs, and the small had 5. The kits come with brushes, the paint, and a palette. We bought the small kit and got to pick 10 paint colors. We brought the kit home and painted them like we would in studio. Once done we brought them back to Petroglyph. Since these were ornaments, they did tell us if we wanted them before Christmas, we needed to return them by a certain date. We did make the cutoff and they were ready just as they said. The ornaments turned out beautifully! We loved how it was something we can do at home and will probably be doing another kit next year!

    We had a very nice time here on a Saturday morning. It was our first time & a pleasant staff member went over instructions, provided information about the materials & process, & gave design tips. We were set up comfortably. After you finish, they clean up for you. All the staff we interacted with were friendly, personable, & helpful during our session & at pick up. The studio is bright & modern. Most tables are inside, but there are a few outside. Mellow music plays in the background. Two sinks are accessible to wash up. A restroom is also available to use. You may have to scoot to pass tables/other people to get around, but it's roomy enough. There was a variety of items available to design, as well as seasonal choices. They had materials besides paints & brushes--ways to add text, stamps, sponges, lace, etc. Aprons were available to use. Several tables were reserved & we could hear when a waitlist started. They can get busy, but you can still take your time. You can bring in food & drinks to enjoy as you work on your item. They will take reservations for groups of 5 or more & you can plan parties there. It's a fun, creative, relaxing experience to be enjoyed by anyone. However, it can add up & get pricey with your studio fee & what you pick to paint. We really like how our finished pieces came out. We would come back again as a special activity.

    I took my mom here for the first time and it was such a fun experience! We were greeted by friendly staff and she briefly explained the process of choosing a ceramic with different price tags on them. We then get to choose our paint, paint brushes and other tools for the ceramics we chose. The place has adequate seating and clean supplies, and there was no time limit either which was pretty nice. The studio price is $15 for adults and the ceramic price gets added on, and we pickup our ceramics within 4-5 days. If you're not able to pick it up by then the studio holds it for 30 days!

    I've been here multiple times and each time has been such a fun and vibrant experience! Employees are always so kind and helpful, there are always plenty of options of ceramics to choose from, and there's so much inspiration all around!! Pricing is variable, depending on the piece you choose to paint and there's something for everyone, no matter your artistic skill!

    employees are super helpful and nice very they don't hover and kinda let you do your own thing everything is very straightforward and beginner friendly!

    My daughter and I were greeted when we arrived. This was our first time here. The staff informed us how everything worked. We didn't have reservations but could take a seat any area that was open. We got to pick which items we wanted to paint. We spent maybe an hour or so there. We picked out our own colors, brushes and other items we may need. Staff members explained the price point for items as well as the fees for adult and kids. My daughter enjoyed her time here. We plan to come back in the fall to paint some Halloween items. I thank the staff for their understanding and kindness. Once we were done I was told keep the receipt because I would have to pick up the ceramics after they were glazed and finished. Pick up was easy, show your receipt and they will bag up your items.

    Really cool space. Amazing and friendly staff. The pieces are a bit over priced but I really loved the atmosphere and the people. It's a very chill spot and would be perfect for a girls night out or a date night. The studio fee is $15 and there weren't many inexpensive pieces. I think $22 was the cheapest for an actual piece that was like a letter or magnet. You can't bring your own pieces either. So you're looking at $80+ just for two people. It would be 5 stars for me if it was a bit cheaper or I could bring my own pieces.

    They were super accommodating and nice!

    Came in on a Saturday night and the employees were so nice and accommodating. The environment was so positive and warm! Will be back :)

    Super cute place I cannot wait to come back. My boyfriend actually found this place which is crazy because he is not crafty but he thought it would make a cute anniversary date and it did. Both the people that worked there were very friendly. One of the ladies even sat at the table and helped someone who asked for it, that was lovely to see. Anyways, for $5 each my boyfriend and I got 4 pieces of tiny ceramics to paint. I'm a sucker for anything mini. Can't wait to see what our pieces will look like once fired up and glossed!! Until then, here's what we made.

    It's time for an Update since my last review four years ago. We are obviously regulars with 170 check ins and More than half the pictures posted are mine. My best friend and I used to come almost every weekend but now twice a month with family obligations. As with anything, the prices have gone up. It is now $12 child and $14 adult for a studio fee and the annual pass no longer exists. However, you don't have to finish in one sitting. If you are local, it is best to start a few pieces that will last you a couple trips. We have gotten more experienced and have been doing more elaborate pieces that take longer. For a family with small children, this could be an expensive experience. But for a girl's day out or a date night, I think it's worth it. The staff is really nice. Jen the manager is awesome! Who is also very talented and you will see a lot of her works displayed. She invited us and other regular customers to be a part of their good day Sacramento segment! This place has been around since the 1990s so I'm okay with them raising the prices to keep a float. I always enjoy supporting the small business. Oh and get there right at opening to ensure a seat is available. They tend to get busier as the weather gets colder. We have walked away a few times because they were packed. Wait time is hard to gauge because some people take an hour and others can take several hours.

    Friendly staff & a pleasant environment. The grand kids had a lot of fun making their creations.

    The staff is so awesome! Every single one I talked to was helpful, friendly, and seemed like they actually wanted to be there. It's a bit expensive but I feel like that is to be expected with this sort of thing. Worth the wait (list)!

    I LOVE petroglyph! it's my go-to hangout with my friends! It is a bit pricey depending on how many things you paint but overall if you just pick one thing it is pretty affordable! I come here all the time, it is super chill and they play good music!!

    Can we bring champagne to enjoy while we paint ceramics? We're planning on going to Petroglyph for a Bachelorette Venue....

    Hi Courtney - Sorry for the delay in response. It is best to call the store directly. Ask for Jen at 916-772-4278.
