Things to Consider
  • Owner Joe Rock Edwards used foul language and was demeaning to a woman in a group, making a joke about her being a prostitute.
  • Customers were told they would make sculptures, have them fired, and then paint them. After firing, they were told to bring their own paint to paint the sculptures.
  • Sculptures did not come out very nice after being fired.

Both of my children take art classes from Joe and Linda. It is the highlight of their week! Both instructors truly care for the kids and take the time to help each child. The atmosphere is light and fun. Highly recommend.

Joe and Linda are amazing. Our kids look forward to going to art class. They have a good balance of fun and learning. Give them direction but also freedom to draw what they love.

Also known as White Rock Studio. We had a horrible experience. The owner Joe Rock Edwards used foul language and was demeaning to the woman in our group, even making a joke about her being a prostitute. We were told we would make our sculptures and have them fired and be able to then paint them. After they were fired they did not come out very nice and when we asked to paint them we were told to bring our own paint. Find anywhere but here to go too!!
