The area is new to me and I very much enjoyed some of the shops.I am a guy who at one time only had experience eating in South Central Los Angeles, East Los Angeles, Long Beach and the Hub Cities. I do love these cities and I am happy to experience new unfamiliar places like Atwater Village and Silver Lake. Molly was there to kindly greet everyone, guide the children to complete task and behave, teach craft and chat with the adults. I enjoyed being in her class and I enjoyed seeing my little nephew complete his project. You can tell Molly has experience and education working with young children. On the walls we saw paintings and various drawings made by children. We did an Autumn seasonal craft project with paper, wooden wreaths, glue and various other decorative items. They have no-meter warning on Sunday, all other days there is a 2 hour maximum at a meter which can be paid by quarters or credit card, I do not think they accept EBT. Plenty of parking that day and other parking available if you are willing to walk. There is a garden area out back with rocks and a bench and the sun and air flowing in. I enjoyed the experience very much so as did many of the people I met there. I think the price range is fairly reasonable for the uptown people of this affluent area though maybe not for this downtown kind of guy. I do plan to come back in this area and I would highly recommend this place to any Hipster parents who want to keep children entertained for a while and want to help develop their children's vital skills.

I had some questions regarding masks - my daughter is disabled and hard of hearing, she cannot wear one and neither can I as she partially reads lips to communicate with people. Needless to say these past years have been VERY difficult for us. Luckily Maital understood not only to our situation, but to laws and freedoms. She had no problem with us enjoying her space and being creative without masks. As we spoke I began to see that she stood for freedom and kindness. She said - If you want to or have to wear one, you're welcome in my business, If you don't want to or cannot wear one, you're welcome in my business. We felt totally at home surrounded by beautiful things and a wonderful, kind person who gave my daughter an amazing day!! Thank you Maital for your help, support and the fun we had with you!!! I recommend anyone to her studio and to just have fun relax and be a human again!!! And for those who are still panicking and worried about living life during this 'pandemic' - my comment is STAY HOME!! So the rest of us can go without having to cater to you because of your insane fears!!

It was such a fun class, and as first-timers to pottery, we felt like it was a great introduction. The instructors were helpful, and the whole process was really enjoyable.

We were led upstairs, and I was surprised by the rooftop pond, and how beautiful the koi fishes were! You can also see the Hollywood sign in the distance. It was a very serene space. Filming is welcome (a plus for capturing memories!), and parking is free right out front. Just note: the lot is pretty small, so I recommend arriving early to snag a spot. Our instructor was super informative and made sure to spend time with everyone in the class, walking us through every step of the process. It was hands-on and beginner-friendly, which made it all the more enjoyable. The only downside is the wait bc our finished bowls took about 6-8 weeks to be ready after shaping them on the wheel. But honestly, it was worth it--they turned out beautifully :')

The intention setting part of the workshop was very peaceful and created an opportunity to reflect on the past year and be intentional about something you'd like to foster for yourself in this new year. Excellent class and I'd return to this studio for another one. However, $70 may be a bit steep for some for a workshop like this.

I am heartbroken by my experience with Tova's Pottery Party…read more My 18-year-old mini-Maltese passed away last year, and one of my most treasured keepsakes was a clay paw print made before his passing. Looking for someone to apply a protective coating, my boyfriend and I contacted Tova after seeing positive Yelp reviews. Although I was unsure about the clay's composition, Tova assured me she could handle it using a low-heat process. When I dropped it off, I explained how important this memorial was to me. Tova was kind and promised to take good care of it. However, when we followed up a week later, she informed us that the paw print had melted and broken into three pieces. When I finally reached her by phone, she claimed I had asked her to "fire" the piece, which I never did, and suggested the paw print might not even be made of clay. After I confirmed with the original company that it was clay, she told me to take the issue up with them. I only wanted to understand what happened. What hurt most was her response afterward. She asked me to bring my dog back to make another paw print, apparently forgetting that Bubu had passed away. She became defensive, dismissed my concerns, and ended the call abruptly. Fearing the damaged paw print might be discarded, I arranged to pick it up immediately. Instead of meeting us, she left the melted remains on her porch for my boyfriend to collect. There was no apology, refund, or acknowledgment of the significance of what had been lost. Tova was rude and irresponsible, which is totally unacceptable. If Tova lacked the expertise to work with the piece, I wish she had been honest from the beginning rather than risking something irreplaceable. Because of this experience, a precious memorial of my beloved dog is gone forever. I am sharing my experience so others can make an informed decision before trusting this business with sentimental or irreplaceable items.
