Lovely place to learn painting! Ms. Widmer and the students were very nice. It is so sad that she passed away. They have nice art shows with good food. The class would always take an ice cream break as well. I miss coming here.

*2021 Updated review! I have been a student here for more than 3 years now and have loved every moment - I have not missed a term since I began. The expanded studio space accommodates additional students and is so bright and beautiful while retaining the warmth and magic that permeates the entire experience.
