I was blown away by how many artists I LOVED at the Shain Gallery - they really do have some of the best contemporary artists all available in one cute location. Easy to get to with plenty of places to eat or snack around it, this gallery should be on your must see list if you are in the Charlotte area.

She is such a welcoming person and we both felt so comfortable in her gallery. She talked about some of her upcoming classes and workshops for younger artists as she remembers meeting my Granddaughter Savannah. Downtown Fort Mill is continuing to emerge post-COVID and the monthly art crawl is a great way to support our local art community. It's essential to have creative inspiration in our lives for balance & harmony. Ft Mill has doubled in size to 30,000 residents in the last 5 years and it's great to see so many out supporting local/independent business.

This is after I received an email it was ready. I drove the 45 minutes to pick it up, so wasted trip. I asked if they could ship it for free after not having item ready and being defective. They said No and it would cost me 18.00 , I had already paid over 100 to create item. I will say when I had to go back they gave the one we did and a new one they created. But after the lack of consumer service after an issue I would not go back.

I have been collecting art for many years now and have never experienced the ineptitude and…read moreunprofessionalism that l have had with this so-called gallery full stop! I purchased a very expensive painting from them and l still haven't received it due to their inexperience! Firstly, their very young employee Emma took it upon herself to send the painting via UPS Saturday delivery! She never once asked me if this was okay and the shipping fees were absolutely astronomical! I use a business address for shipping and Saturday delivery isn't even possible! ALWAYS CHECK WITH THE CUSTOMER FIRST BEFORE MAKING SUCH BIG DECISIONS! I requested a refund for the shipping charges, but Emma refused! Young Emma kept promising me that she had followed up with UPS to reschedule delivery, but sadly, l had to keep following up with her as she never followed up with me directly! I kept tracking the package and there were even more hiccups! The package was never placed on the delivery truck for the supposed rescheduled delivery of yesterday. Today l wait and wait, At 4:37 p.m. l tracked the package again only to find that the wrong address is on the shipping label! Where is my painting? I will never know and will file a dispute with my cc company. Just a warning to please avoid SOCO at all costs for anything of value!

The session felt a little more intimate and one-on-one since it was only my sister and I. Although we took longer than the time allowed, we were able to finish the charcuterie board with no rush. Lee said not to worry about the resin, since we ran out of time. Lee finished the resin for us and the boards were ready to be picked up after 2 days. Plenty of parking since the establishment is within a shopping center. The only detail is the shop is upstairs of the shopping center.

My sister and I were the only ones for the Charcuterie board so it felt like a private party just for us as we were hosted in a smaller room away from a kids birthday party they were having. Overall, such a great time. Board came out great and the vibes were amazing. I love how they have a variety of different options other than painting canvases. They offer Charcuterie boards, wine glasses, knit a blanket, coasters, ornaments etc. Definetly returning to create some more amazing pieces. They are opening another location in Matthews. This is off East Blvd in a shopping center. They have plenty of parking.

I arrived around 330pm on Sunday had had a leisurely stroll through the museum. It is smaller and quieter than uptown but has some nice artwork and exhibits. I would definitely come back to both locations, especially on Wednesdays when it is free in the evenings. Otherwise $15 day pass is still a solid, educational and wholesome way to spend a couple hours. Staff is pleasant and friendly. This location was not as crowded either so that was nice. It's in a more residential res but just a couple blocks from some good restaurants and shops. @azfitfoodfun

I visited Mint Museum Randolph on one of the free Wednesday evenings. The grounds and historic…read moresetting are beautiful, but the permanent collection wasn't for me. Much of the museum focuses on decorative arts, ceramics, furniture, and textiles, which I found less engaging than I expected. I was hoping for a broader mix of artwork and exhibits. The museum is well maintained and worth visiting if you enjoy historical collections and design, but visitors looking for more contemporary or interactive exhibits may prefer the Uptown location instead. I personally would not pay admission to visit this location again, but I recommend checking it out on a free Wednesday evening.
