  • Naughty Night: Nude Male Painting

    It was said that it was 100 people in the room for this event. I came with 11. It was birthdays, bachelorette and divorces being celebrated. Awesome vibe in the room. Had a amazing time. Will come back for other classes.
  • Such a great class, learned a lot and the food was amazing! Highly recommend. Great energy.

  • Good teacher and interesting classes covering paints and painting. Fun! And
  • Very informative. While a bunch of topics to cover in a fairly short period of time, I felt like Chef’s presentation was fabulous and she took the time to answer questions and explain the techniques such that it didn’t feel rushed at all.
  • I wish it was a bit longer so the instructor could have evaluated the finished product.
  • As a complete beginner, this was an excellent course. Although there were others in the class with far more experience than I, everyone was supportive and provided excellent feedback of previous work.

I highly recommend this course and Sarah as an instructor. Thank you, Sarah!

    Leo and Reneé were great! We had a fantastic time getting to learn a lot (and eat even more!)
  • The class was Great! Just enough information and background to get me interested but not so much that I was impatient to start making wine! Perfect balance. I can't wait to taste the wine. The only suggestion I would make would be for course horse, I did not know you could order your wine kit ahead of time, if it was mentioned I missed it and would like to see tidbits like that have a more prominent place in the description. It was a great experience and I would do it again. Gail
