In addition to being an art gallery and having painting classes, ghost tours are also launched from here. I was lucky enough to go on Ann's tour and it was so fun and interesting. There is SO much history here and Ann knows all of it. I loved hearing the stories at each stop. The thing with a small town is that everyone knows where the bodies are buried.....and there are plenty here in Covington. The first night of our event there was a power outage downtown. That made it the perfect setting for our group! What a great spot with or without electrify! If you have any interest in art or ghosts, this gallery is the place for you.

You pick out a piece of pottery and paint it and then they glaze it and it's ready about a week later. Bonus, they are able to ship it for people out of state for only $10!

It was so nice to see families and people from all walks of life there having a good time together. Great date, night, activity or activity with your family or a group of friends. Would absolutely return! I will update this review with a picture of my mug when I receive it in the mail.

I originally stopped by in search of pottery classes--and was delighted to find not only that they offer them, but also that a new session begins on October 13th. In addition, there's a Fall Break Art Camp for grades 2-5, where children will experiment with a range of media including watercolor, acrylics, and collage. As I walked through the space, I was able to watch artists at work and enjoy the current gallery exhibits on display. The atmosphere was inspiring and welcoming. Adult fall classes--running October 6th through December 13th--are also available, covering both visual and ceramic arts. Each class is taught by individual instructors, making it approachable for students of all levels. Best of all, online registration makes it simple to sign up. I was pleasantly surprised to discover that such a wonderful resource has been right in my neighborhood all along. It was a great experience, and I've already registered for pottery classes--something I'm really excited about! If you're looking for a place to explore your creative side, I highly recommend checking out the Art Center. Great value for 8 weeks art class at $280

Going to college alone is just not enough to build a good book, in my opinion. And The Creative Circus is the place to be if you wanna go to portfolio school. (And have people constantly asking you, 'wait whaaat? where do you go to school?') I didn't just build a book there, though. I met some amazingly talented, super smart (so smart they're intimidating at times but also awesome) people, and made connections. People say your college friends are 'for life,' but honestly, my Circus friends are the ones I'll never forget. Plus, the people are really nice. Very low asshole population. That is saying something. Also, they didn't pay me to write this. PEACE.

I recently took an 8-week "Intro to Drawing" class at Spruill and had a wonderful time! My…read moreinstructor was Thomas Key and I appreciated the way he organized the class. The pace was perfect and I never felt as though we were moving too fast. There were only 4 people in my Sunday afternoon class which allowed plenty of opportunities for him to walk around and help us individually. We also had opportunities to take little snack/bathroom breaks. The building is shared with the library and since that's closed on Sundays, there was usually ample parking. Sometimes there would be a children's performance in the theater near our studio but it was never really disruptive. Although sometimes, there would be less parking spots near the studio entrance on those days. I genuinely enjoyed taking this class at Spruill! I hope to take more classes here in the future and I even told my friends about it. The classes are reasonably priced for the quality of instruction that they offer, and there may be a few need-based scholarships available on their website. I believe there is a donation-based supply closet available to students who are currently enrolled in art classes, but the closet itself is only open during the week. Overall, I think Spruill is a great place hone any craft and I would love to take more classes in the future.

Having taken many art classes myself I wanted to be sure that this was a good place to send my son for him to expand his love of art. I talked directly to the owner and felt good about it. I decided to try it and so far my son loves it! He does the extended class which is 1.5 hours long and not just the reg hour. At times I think he wishes it was longer... lol. The cost is reasonable but on the website they don't have a way to pay for the 6 months extended class and get the discount. I had to talk to the owners again and it was a bit messy getting that all taken care of. However it has been very worth it! I would sign my son up again in a heart beat. And will keep him going as long as he wants to go.

Her first piece of art that she brought home was a drawing of an old man and there was no story or pride from the work, she just shrugged. My 6-year-old LOVES art, I've never seen her be nonchalant about art so I pulled her out and she's in a different program now, thriving. She should be psyched about her work.

We wanted to do something uncommon for a 5 year old's birthday or at least something we don't usually do! I called the Vinings School of Art, and the owner Cara or maybe it's spelled Kara, was very thorough and got my party booked right away! She insisted that I come by and view the space and decide which sculpture we wanted to do. The place is super cute, very colorful and festive, so minimum decorations are needed. Her and her assistant had the rooms spotless and ready to go way before it was time for the party to start. The kids had a blast! They created 3D rocket ships with two revolving planets! Cara/Kara was even nice enough to clean everything up after the younger babies who couldn't paint had made a mess of the toy area! Everything about our experience was professional, fun, and well executed! We'll definitely be back!
