Her casual, patient, and mildly irreverent personality makes this event something that you don't want to miss. I've done a few of these and I will definitely do more, they are great for client appreciation, group fun, or even just a date night.

And if a cocktail or two steadies your hand or juices your mojo, they offer that too! Caring staff stand on a little stage up front with a microphone and cue you as you go. It's like a Peloton class for painters--only better because you can get booze! Perfect for groups, events, bachelorette parties, team building, and more. Go make something of yourself! :-)

I recently attended a class at brush studio for the first time! I had only ever been in here during…read moreart prize but I had always heard great things and I have a friend that frequents classes here so I was looking forward to finally checking one out. We went to the paint your pet session that I believe they do once a month. We submitted pictures of our pet to them after booking (about 3-4 weeks in advance) and they provided us with a general outlined sketch that we could follow for our painting. Thank god they did this because I do not consider myself creative and this made the whole thing easier and less stressful. Typically these classes provide a step by step instruction led by a teacher/instructor but since these were all individualized pet paintings, they could not really do that. The teacher was great anyways and super friendly. She offered tips on colors and how to get certain textures or features. They were always available for questions and were walking around the room most of the time to help out. I was really happy with how my painting turned out. I felt like it really looked like my pup!! They are in a great location off of Ionia with many parking garages surrounding or you may get lucky and find some street parking. They also have a bar available with many drink options that you can pay for. I look forward to taking another class here in the future!

I have never heard of "I'm An Artist Community Studio" before but think I stumpled upon a Facebook…read moreevent for "Art Journaling". I've always had a creative side and enjoyed the idea of learning more artistic outlets, so when I found out that they do classes, I had to join in! My friends have always talked about doing a watercolor class so when I went on to their site, I saw quite a few for the day but none in the evenings. I messaged them on Instagram and they immediately shared with me the upcoming watercolor evening classes to sign up. They do a lot of day time classes for kids but also have a variety of classes that you can sign up for throughout the month. Facebook seems to be the most up to date spot for events. This class was the "Watercolor Rainbow" where the owner provided each station with practice paper, a larger watercolor paper for our "creation" and our own paint palettes. We walked through different techniques of wet on wet, wet on dry, how to add more texture and even remove some of the paint if it was too wet. It was a great experience to dabble back into watercolors and I will definitely be looking into other classes here in the future!

I've been here multiple times and have usually had an enjoyable experience, though accessibility…read morehas always limited my options. (High tables, cramped seating, low movement space) My partner and I stopped in as walk-ins on Saturday around 2pm, fully understanding it would be busy and that there could be a wait. When we entered, there was no signage and no employees directing guests. Like others who walked in, we selected our pottery and sat at an open table. The table was completely clear -- no signage, no tiles, nothing indicating it was reserved. At no point were we informed that the table was reserved or that there was a waitlist. After choosing our colors, we asked an employee to quickly review the instructions. During that interaction, another employee approached and stated the table was reserved. I asked if we needed to move and was told, "No, it's fine, we'll figure it out," and the instructions continued. A few minutes later, after staff were visibly discussing the situation and staring at us, we were told we would need to move because the table was reserved and there was a waitlist. An alternative was offered, but it was not accessible for us, so we declined and left. We were later told that walk-ins are required to check in at the "front desk," which is actually located at the back of the store. This is not stated on the website, and there is no signage in the store explaining this process. We were also told reserved tables are typically marked with tiles -- however, the table we sat at was completely empty and unmarked. By their own stated policy, the process was not followed in this situation. The handling of the situation was disappointing, poorly communicated, and made for an unnecessarily uncomfortable experience
