    I am a master of stick-figure art, so for Heather to work me through to a piece I would willingly…read morehang on a wall is no small feat. It was fun seeing how the other painters & I each created our own unique takes on the theme. I particularly appreciate that Heather encouraged personalization & helped us customize our pieces with add-ons. With 6 guests, she is willing to travel instead of making us come to her, so hopefully next time we can host a painting party ourselves.

    I had such a BLAST tonight! Let me first start by saying I'm definitely not an artist. Even my…read morestick figures are questionable, but this place gave me new hope! I went with my family for a public painting party to do a Magical Mickey. You can book online or in person. It's $30 and comes with unlimited paint, brushes, tabletop easel, and 11x14" canvas. What I love is you can have them trace it for $5 extra or wing it like I did. They gladly walk around step by step to help you and will also make suggestions if you get stuck. Not once did I feel uncomfortable or any less talented as the others. I can't wait to go back for a different theme. You can also book private parties too for a minimum 7 people. They're open 7 days a week. They're across from Goodwill on Jonestown Rd. The staff is very friendly and we all had so much fun filled with laughter!

    I met Mrs. Gray years ago through one of her sons. She was a real gem. I don't like the term…read more"character", but she was one of those things. And a good mother. I wish I had gotten to know her. Years ago, I went back to her shop. Mrs. Gray had died years before. Her shop was now a kind of exhibit place, and it was still filled with an incredible collection of "stuff" - toys, lunchboxes, wigs, figurines, buttons, everything you can think of - and lots of it in bins classified by color like a big bin of red toy cars. It was overwhelming and a lot of fun. I think the grand daughter or niece of Mrs. Gray was my friendly hostess in the store. I was allowed to roam the store freely - alone, stunned and amazed. They had named the place Elsewhere and there was some sort of organized group connected to the place. I got on their mailing list and sent them a contribution. Some years later, in 2014, I returned to my beloved hometown, Greensboro, for a visit. An old friend of mine and I walked the length of Elm Street, starting at the few blocks leading up to the Jefferson Standard Building - heading toward Lee Street. I relived many memories of my youth, my "hippie days" (circa 1967) and my working class hero days on that walk. We stopped in a lot of shops and the clerks and customers were friendly and seemed to like us. We supported those shops by making some purchases. It was quite a pleasant stroll. We reached Elsewhere. I hadn't been back there for decades. The people there were very full of themselves. They seemed suspicious of us, two traditional looking white old guys. I guess that was it. I've been around and I can recognize people who are too hip for their own good. They were entirely unwelcoming. I got the feeling that they wondered what we were doing there. They treated us like we were shoplifters or CIA. We wordlessly left the place. It was very disappointing to me. I did not send another donation.

    Not a favorite of mine, but others may find it enjoyable. There are tons of toys and gadgets to see…read morethere. For me it was messy and overwhelming. I had to leave. But others may find it interesting. The place is unique in that it's organized but it's got so much stuff, it looks messy. Personally, I avoid the place. Others may find it a fun place to take a date.
