We have a pet portrait she did of our sweet dog who had recently passed. It's a treasured piece in our home. We own a couple more pieces and some prints. I'd love to have one of her gorgeous larger works. Also have taken one of her watercolor classes. It was fun and gave me a good grasp of the basics.

This place was a good supplier for glass materials. I am in an art class here in the Springfield…read morearea that required supplies only available here or online. I chose to go to the store because i could choose from sooo many pieces and colors of glass and various supplies you'd never find at hobby lobby. just know, they DO NOT accept credit cards, and that calls for minor difficulties.

I have taken guitar lessons here for 2 years and just recently my children have taken music classes…read morehere as well. Also one of the instructors recently had an informal ukulele jam that I attended as well. The faculty here are great! Everyone is friendly and they absolutely LOVE music and the arts. It's cool watching the wide variety of instruments that students are carrying to and from their lessons- violins, violas, cellos, guitars (acoustic and electric), banjos, mandolins, ukuleles, and so on. They have summer camps for kids with some variety including a "rock band" camp that a co-worker's daughter attended. She was only going to go for the first week but enjoyed it so much she signed up for the second week too. I think it gave her the confidence to join a real band which she has since done and has performed with in public a few times now. My kids love their instructors and not only had a good time in class but my wife and I are impressed by how much music theory they picked up in class! Also they have a kid's string band The Bow-dacious String Band and I've caught them twice at public performances and for a children's band they're very impressive, if you get a chance to see them perform I recommend it and I recommend C4A if you're looking for music instruction! I wish their location was a little more convenient but really that's the only complaint I have and really that's a minor thing.

Take this how you will but I have been to few colleges and this one ranks up there. I attended…read moreKaskaskia College in Centralia, IL, Lakeland College at Mattoon, IL, and SIUE. As far community colleges go this one is my favorite. I am still only enrolled in my first semster but genrally I am happy with my classes and the staff. Dr. John Squibb is a fantastic teacher as is Mr. Reynolds (sociology). I have been pleased so far at how easy they operate. KC liked to complicate EVERYTHING. Almost everyone of the staff have been eager to help (not including a couple bad advisors). I am excited to get started in the art department. This is the first community college I have attended that had a nice range of art classes available. The campus is okay. I do wish they offered healthier food choices. They do have a subway now but I can only take so much lunchmeat. I hope to complete my associates degree here and maybe even then some. Question: why are we called loggers?

Fun and creative space that is very cute. There are many classes available. A must see!read more
