For years I have been looking for "my thing" in terms of a hobby or passion, and leave most classes I have taken feeling low...not this one. Carey's infectious positive energy and eagerness to teach is incomparable to any other class I've taken. She takes the time to work with everyone and make sure they feel proud of the project they are taking home. I've done three projects at Glass Action and intend on doing more in the near future. Her unique approach to teaching a somewhat mystical, mysterious medium resonates with everyone she meets. A few weeks ago I left work in a kind of awful mood, and left feeling completely different. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would.

It was a great experience. It feels like a community of people coming together to make or learn art.read more

I saw this place pop up in Berkley a few years ago and was intrigued. I don't consider myself an…read moreartist by any stretch of the imagination. I hadn't attempted anything creative since the last art class I had in grade school. But I was interested when I saw they offered a Zentangle class which promised the only artistic ability you needed was to draw a stick figure. I took the class and ended up really enjoying it. It is essentially structured, meditative doodling. I came back for several more Zentangle classes when I found it was a great way to relieve stress and get out of the rut of logical, left-brain thinking. I never intended to create great art, but rather to get in touch with the creative part of my brain and to enjoy the meditative qualities of creating art. But I enjoyed Zentangle so much that I eventually branched out and tried several other classes that included things like intuitive painting, sculpture, and traditional Japanese Sumi-e black ink painting. Each class was fun and informative, and I was surprised to find sometimes I actually liked some of the art I created, too, and not just the process. The owner, Debby, and the instructors have all been great. They clearly love helping people learn and get in touch with their creativity. Articipate offers a wide variety of events, classes and lessons. It seems like there is something for everyone - regardless of age and whether you consider yourself artistic or not. It seems like a glut of places have popped up in the past few years offering private "paint parties". I have been to a couple of those and while they can be fun, this place takes an approach that is much more fun and engaging than a one size fits all "paint by numbers" approach - regardless of artistic ability. I encouraged anyone interested to check out what they offer and let the friendly owner and instructors help you get in touch with your creative side.

His enthusiasm is infectious and his teaching experience unparalleled. I've watched him jump from a 16 year old to a 89 year old and instantly focus on their needs and skill sets. If you are an experienced painter he will move you up another level (I've worked side by side with retired art teachers) and if you know nothing he will teach you everything you need to know. The paintings done by pure beginners of all ages are amazing. Look at his website and study the "gallery". You will see works by kids, first paintings and experienced artists. He has also developed a real sense of community-everyone is out having fun and trying to expand their talents and skill sets. Not sure, just drop by-everyone is welcome.
