    First time at this venue and we were here for Dead Fest. The building itself is a maze, but once we found our way through all the art exhibits, we entered the room where the concert would be held. There was a stage in the corner, vendors around a small area, a bar, reserved seating, and a big dance floor. There were food trucks outside, along with tables and chairs. Great concept. Although our tickets said 1pm start, it didn't start until after 2 pm. Each hour there was a new band, with each getting better as the night wore on. We had purchased reserved seating because we knew we couldn't stand that many hours. We discovered that you could buy GA tickets and bring in your own camping chair, which would have been way more comfortable than the hard chairs we sat on. Acoustics are not the best because of the nature of the building, but it was enjoyable. We finally had to leave after 5 hours because the air conditioning was so cold I couldn't stand it. I was shivering and wasn't having fun anymore.

    This place is very cool! The Factory had local artist Art on display, a bar, and Interactive exhibits. It is also the new home of Daddy Cool records (10% off used records with check-in). Try out the 2 different treasure/scavenger hunts. On my last visit, a half dozen medieval costume Cosplay people were wandering around. You never know what you'll see next!

    "The Factory St. Pete kicked me out this past weekend. When you spend 1000hrs painting under a contract that's out of scope, then address it, all you hope for is people to follow through on their promises of reworked agreements. No one to blame but myself. I trusted management and ownership's word versus making sure my business was in line. Instead, I'm out a bunch of money and the deep feeling of betrayal from someone I truly trusted. Valuable lesson learned. Thank you to everyone who lent a hand in making Wayworld special."

    Beautiful blue chip collection. Had Banksy, amongst others. We browsed multiple sculptures and…read moreartwork. Low pressure sales, very attentive to requests, looked up dates and the supply side for actual delivery. Everything you can expect from a vacation spot like Tampa Bay.

    WOAH!!! Just Woah!! When i heard a gallery was having a Peter Max exhibition i was already down!…read moreRain or shine i was gonna go! Beautiful young lady at the entrance catalog my reservation, which i was later told you don't really need it. They are doing one more day tomorrow from 1pm to 3pm, im definitely going to bring my mother in. Their collection was huge n beautiful. They had all the paintings im used to seeing from him n then many more of the ones i never seen. They have a new "to us" section of his collection of pop art posters. Just groovy n gorgeous colors, that bring the still images into another realm of perspective beauty. I really wanted to walk out with a few but im no where near the bank needed to do that lol. But i have gone full wild n walked out of auctions with his work before. To those that don't know? In most art auctions there's FREE booze. And this girl right here has gotten very very very VERY! "INSPIRED". I was speaking to one of the nice ladies in the show room about the last time i got "inspired" i won 3 guessing, matching n hidden treasure games in that Art auction. So i had 3 bottles of champagne with me n they went WOOOSH! Disappeared, like an act of magic. All I remember is that im the proud owner of 8 paintings. Lol among them was Petter Max and another gentleman i love. They invited me for another night of crazy Jez but although i did go I didn't add to that collection. Do i regret it? The first one no the second night? Yes omg YES!! I saw 5 of the paintings offered to me at the time weren't over the 5k mark. I saw them in this gallery over 15k ouch! I wanted to cry but a las Jez D Wild will one day find herself in another one of these auctions. Back at the gallery; I loved the displays n how they setup the art Exhibit. They had a charming greeter n one of the main most seen paintings dead center. Lady liberty. I love what he did in order to get the fund needed to save the Statue. It's what made me love his art more. Towards the left they had their painting framing counters, consultations n my favorite part, the Bar! Lol i only had a cup of wine to spice up my "inspiration" lol oh it work beautifully! I seriously felt the vibe with the groovy music playing and the beautiful art. I saw the ones i own at x2-x3 times what i payed for my collection. I fought temptation head on! I seriously wanted to walk away with 3 but even with the 12 month pay plan it would hurt my shenanigans money. Another time it's the best advice i got for myself. I think i would've walked out with a print or poster if they had it for sale. I didn't see them n my anemia was kicking my butt so I forgot to ask. I really loved my visit. The staff is kind and professional. Well verse in the craft n if u checkin through the app they give you a voucher for a free consultation on framing your art to. I would definitely come back for future exhibitions. The smell of oils n thinners really made me miss my days as a student of the arts. I think its time for me to return to my craft. Thank you so much for waking my muse up. Blessings to everybody n have a wonderful night!
