  • I took this class Sunday December 14. The instructors were great and so helpful. I didn’t have any wine as I was driving, but there was a plentiful spread of drinks and snacks for anyone who wanted to partake. Making the charcuterie board was so much fun, I can’t wait to see what it looks like. I highly recommend this class or others like it as a group or date activity. The center is also located in Chinatown surrounded by a lot of great restaurants.
  • Great class! Parking was easy, studio was welcoming and clean, instructor was warm, knowledgeable, and funny. Honestly feel like I could do stained glass again on my own if I had the right equipment. Plus, I got a finished product I actually like!
  • This class was really fun. Chloe, our instructor, was so kind and extremely supportive. She is an excellent instructor. Everything was kept running on time, everyone had a complete project and time to choose their glaze.

I would definitely recommend taking other classes with her at the Elementary Art Center.

The space was comfortable and the studio easy to find. ???? Carole C.

Highly recommend!!
