Glashaus has really great vibes and some cool glass pieces to check out or shop inside the shop…read more I tried their Ghost Coffee, but sadly it wasn't very good--might have just been an off day. I'd still consider going back since they're open fairly late, which I really appreciate. There's a small parking lot next to the shop, which is convenient. Overall, a fun spot for the atmosphere even if the coffee didn't quite hit for me.

Glasshauüs is a favorite holiday activity for me. Wyatt and the team are awesome. Since it's a…read moreworking gallery there are so many things to do. First off, It's a cool place to grab a great cup of coffee. There is ample space to spread out for a work meeting or just hang out and enjoy all the beautiful glass pieces. You can also book one of there glass classes. There are glass demos, gallery tours, 15 minute seasonal glass experiences and more intensive sessions for those interested in a private session with their head of glass. I really enjoy the seasonal classes. They are short sessions that provide a great hands on experience. Booking online is easy. Once you arrive you check-in, grab safety glasses followed by a brief overview of the space. Then it's time for the fun. You select your color and are then walked through a hands on ornament making experience. It's a must try for your next date night or girls night out. There is plenty of free onsite parking available which always on plus.

My daughter and stepson were both students at Neko Press when it was located in san diego. Not only…read moreis Billy an extremely talented artist... but all of his students connect with him. He is skilled and helpful without being intimidating. The kids were free to explore their personal gifts and visions but had Billy there to aid them in how to do it. They learned about shading and proportions. They learned how to use acrylics. His studio always had a good vibe and lots of interesting artwork hanging and things for sale that would Inspire their creativity further. San Diego took a big loss when neko press relocated . Nashville, consider yourselves lucky!

Get your hands dirty and develop a new hobby!…read more This art studio and gallery offers 2D printing, painting, drawing and ceramics classes. I've taken the ceramics classes here with a focus on wheel throwing and I love it! Becca is an awesome instructor and allows the class to be free to create, but also helps to steer you in the right direction. I'll be taking the summer class here in May. I've been throwing on the wheel off and on for about 15 years now and the intermediate class offered here is perfect for shaking off the cobwebs. They do offer beginner ceramic classes if you're looking to just dip your toe into the ceramic slip. The classes are about $100 for 8- 12 weeks and the cost includes your clay. For comparison other ceramic classes can start $300! I know I'm about to blow up my own cozy quiet nook of Nashville, but if that means the community discovers and supports this arts center... I'm here for it!

Art & Soul is a Nashville TREASURE when it comes to gathering creative, welcoming, non-judgmental,…read moreauthentic artist-types! I have LOVED everything I've ever participated in at Art & Soul over the last 18+ years. Yowza. Classes and workshops are playful and supportive. There's drawing, clay, collage, movement, sound, creative writing, painting, mixed media, book & paper arts, printmaking and more... but Art & Soul also puts on monthly fun and interesting FREE community movie nights, FREE poetry & spoken word parties, special events, & arts shows. The cost is reasonable and in-line with what many other studios charge but this place is different -- the people are grounded, seeking, magical folks. They really build community -- you feel A PART OF SOMETHING BIGGER. It's also group-owned by local artists who sustain the space cooperatively and use it when there are no classes going on. This is a HIDDEN GEM! It's right in the 12th South area, which is cool, but they need a satellite in East Nashville too!

It has small offices and studios for rent, and a large co-working space (think Starbucks without the expensive coffee). It is one of the few places in Nashville where the coin of the realm is not social class but passion, commitment, and a willingness to learn and share. Tours are free, shop memberships are available at www.forthouston.org

This is by far one of the most exciting places I've reviewed. As someone who LOVES making art,…read morewalking into this space is like a kid in a candy-shop. Branded as a "makerspace", memberships start at $150/mo and cap at $500/mo. Open 24 hours a day (to members only), this is the perfect resource for artists looking to get their business of the ground without the commitment of purchasing studio-space. The shops include screen-printing, metal work, and wood. You can use your reserved space for pretty much any type of art if you don't want your livingroom overflowing with tools and clutter. You are responsible for providing all material supplies, the equipment is the responsibility of the establishment. While some might have a hard time justifying the cost of a membership, I personally don't have the funds to purchase the equipment they allow members to use for free. For me, this is the key selling point. There is a gallery on site and a cafe which features some of the artists work on its walls. During off-hours the space can be used an event space. Scheduling and availability is all done online. All in all, it's a very straight forward agreement, and a fun space to collaborate with other artists.

The prices were around $20 and up per piece, depending upon how large and intricate they are. They offer studio space, membership, and classes on site! I'll be back to check them out in more detail!
