  • Visited their studio in Greenpoint with a friend - sat in the garden. Had a great time painting pottery!

  • Happy Medium = my happy place! Must go to their in-studio events & stock up on charcoals and water colors. Good vibes all around!

  • I would give 0 stars if I could. This company has the worst customer service I have ever encountered. First, my friends and I booked a class online a week in advance. The same day we booked, the company emailed us and said that there was a system glitch and they over booked the class. We asked if could all get a refund, as we wanted to attend the class together and the error was on their end, and they said no. They would only grant a refund to the 1 person overbooked. Then, less than 48 hours before the class, I tested positive for the flu. I asked if I could get a credit to attend another class, given I was incredibly sick (e.g., 102 degree fever) and contagious and they said no. When I noted to them that they were willing to have a knowingly contagious individual attend their class, rather than give them a credit to another class, they said "we cannot survive as a small business if we make exceptions." Yes, when I booked there was a note that said no changes within 48 hours, but I tested positive for the flu, which is completely out of my control, inside of the 48 hour window and they we not willing to make any exceptions. Rather, even after I sent them a photo of my Tamiflu prescription, they claimed that "we have a policy in place that is clearly stated when you purchased the ticket, that you are clearly aware of and are trying to abuse." As a small business, it's incredibly disappointing to see such a lack of understanding and flexibility. I simply asked for credit to attend another class, not a refund. I would not suggest spending $120 on this experience.

    Hi Danielle! As mentioned in our email exchange, you were aware of our reschedule policy (48 hour notice for reschedules) and knew you were sick on Friday but waited until a few hours before the class on Sunday to let us know. We offered you a solution that you did not accept. We're sorry for your frustration but are unfortunately not able to make exceptions. hope you feel better soon.
