It's disappointing but not surprising to receive such a defensive and misleading response instead…read moreof any reflection or accountability. Since you have chosen to publicly distort the situation, I will clarify the facts. First, my child is four years old--a preschooler--attending a class that was marketed as creative and supportive. Instead, your rigid, one-size-fits-all approach left no room for individual learning styles or self-expression. The lack of patience and understanding was evident from the start. Second, the way you describe my child's actions is exaggerated and unfair. Saying "no" is a normal response for a young child in a new environment. Spilling water--whether accidental or not--is also normal for this age group. As for the sharpie cap incident, rather than offering guidance or redirection, your immediate response was removal and exclusion. That's not teaching--it's intolerance. Most troubling is your complete lack of awareness or inclusivity for neurodiverse children. The fact that you frame basic preschooler behaviors as "behavioral issues" and immediately resort to expulsion rather than understanding speaks volumes. You've made it clear that children who don't fit your narrow mold aren't welcome. Rather than addressing the real issue--your rigid, exclusionary practices--you've chosen to defend discrimination under the guise of "student safety." The only thing unsafe here is an environment where a young child is treated like a problem instead of a learner. Parents deserve to know the truth: Fibo is NOT a welcoming place for all children. If you expect kids to be robotic and silent, just say so--don't pretend to offer a creative and nurturing experience. Shame on you for doubling down instead of doing better.

My son Logan wanted to branch out and try oil painting, and I'm very happy that we came across Russ…read moreat the Fine Art Studio. Russ has a variety of students using pencil, oil, or water color and he is able to provide great instruction across different media while letting the students do their own work at their own pace. Early on, Logan gained confidence to paint on his own and gets a lot of constructive feedback from Russ. Instruction is friendly, casual, and encouraging. I'm very happy we found Fine Art Studio and I think it is a great value for artists at any level.

The interior is incredibly vibrant and colorful which makes for a very welcoming atmosphere. The instructor Elle brought great energy to the class and was very encouraging to all the attendees. The class moves steadily so you don't feel rushed, and they encourage you to work at your own pace as well as allowing you to be free to make deviations from the painting as you see fit. There's a lot of freedom in what you create which I found to add to the experience as everybody's painting is their own unique piece of art. The staff help clean everything up at the end, assist with photos, answer questions, and let you take your time as you leave in the event you need to add those finishing touches to your masterpiece. Overall, this was such an enjoyable experience and I would highly recommend you check this out; whether you're going solo, with friends, or on a cute date. Super fun time and very reasonably priced.

Very organized paint night complete with a video camera and TV monitors so you can make sure that you see all of the action and get a view of the paint demonstration. When you walk in, all spots are already assigned so you don't need to get there too early to pick your seat. Showing up early does have a few perks since you can head over to the bar area at the back to grab some snacks and drinks while you enjoy a fun night painting. While at your assigned seat, you'll have all the supplies you need all ready to go! The staff are very knowledgeable and friendly and I can't wait to head back for another event!

We absolutely love Mud Hen Clay and Art Studio! This adorable studio is truly a hidden gem. My…read more11-year-old has been taking classes here for the past year, and I've loved watching her confidence grow along the way. Working with clay requires patience, creativity, and real time problem solving, which has been such a wonderful experience for her. I especially love that pottery teaches her to embrace the process rather than expect instant gratification. There's no rushing to a finished product...you have to work through each step, learn from mistakes, and sometimes figure out how to solve a problem when things don't go as planned. It has been so rewarding to watch her challenge herself, develop new skills, and become more confident in her ability to work through frustration and find solutions. These are skills that extend far beyond the studio, and I'm so grateful she has a place where she can develop them while doing something she genuinely enjoys. The staff are also amazing and clearly passionate about what they do. You can tell how much they care about the kids and their creative growth. We highly recommend Mud Hen Clay and Art Studio! It's a wonderful place for kids to create, learn, challenge themselves, and grow.

An overdue review based on the pottery wheel class and glazing option experience. For reservations,…read moreI made it for two people through their website. This was for a public class on a Saturday at around 4:30 PM. The class consisted of 8 people max and seemed to be all couples. All of the equipment was prepared like an apron, clay, pottery wheel, etc. We had an instructor that was very knowledgeable and explained everything from start to finish. Complex technicals were explained in layman's terms. We were given enough clay to create 3 pieces but could keep up to two. The instructor also frequently went around to check everyone's pieces and was able to troubleshoot as needed. It was a fun experience but be very prepared to get your hands dirty! The glazing portion was separate from the class. There was no reservation needed for that so I did it the same day that I went to see the ceramics. For parking, street parking could be hit or miss depending on the time. I'd recommend coming early to have ample time to find parking. Overall, I enjoyed the experience enough. It could have been perfect if the staff here remembered to follow up on when the ceramics were ready for pickup. I am happy with the end result though.

They've also helped multiple students get i to OCHSA and so much more! This is the best art class you'll find in Irvine from beginning art classes for kids to advanced classes for teens.

She kept asking for months so i decided to bring her to Creative Art. We explained to Meg that we did not know anything about art and there's no art gene run in the family. Meg assured us that she has had many students from families just like ours and they did great. We signed up for the tryout lessons and immediately were impressed with our daughter's progress. My very athletic girl can sit thru 2 full hours focused and quietly working on her projects. Meg knows how to encourage her students and she created a very laidback environment, perfect for you to explore and to be creative. Class schedule has many options and when we have conflicts with other activities, they are willing to work with you. I sent my girl's paintings to friends and family members and they are so impressed, we got a lot of "where did she get that from?" We are very happy with Meg and Creative Art
