I have been attending Rhonda's class with my granddaughter for a few months.  Together, we have a great time.  The class and Rhonda are fantastic, supportive, and enjoyable.  Going home with a painting that my granddaughter finished and loves gives her more self-confidence.

It's a fantastic location for small gatherings and events for artists. A stage is located in a large, flexible space. In fact, we will tie the knot there in March. They're very accommodating, too!
