    Great fun at their event last night. The sculpture tour got us out exploring Old Town. We submitted photos for their photo contest. It was fun. Also enjoyed their local artist art show and as always, had to buy something from their gift shop.

    During the summer I came to City Arts to try their Glass Fusing class and ended up taking a total of three classes back to back. I learned something new and had fun. There is no right or wrong way to fuse glass and create art. It is a great way to relax and meet new people. Everyone is nice and helpful. They have day classes and night classes, weekdays or weekends and not just Glass Fusing but other arts too! Classes for kids as well as adults. Check it out! You never know what talent you might discover you have.

    This is a place where you learn how to make art. Just an incredible amount of mediums that you can learn in this one building. I have found the class prices to be reasonable and in line with with other instructional places. You can do everything from learning how to paint to blow glass or silver smithing. I highly recommend. They also do 1st Friday where you can visit for free later at night. The building is free everyday for the current exhibit.

    The only class I've taken is glassblowing, and it's great. The instructors are very friendly and patient with beginners. Skilled instructors are also available to assist students at all levels. I also enjoy walking through the building to view the various and ever-changing gallery displays. I plan on taking pottery soon. Highly recommend City Arts. First Friday is a blast here! LOTS of art, plus snacks and drinks. There's even live glass blowing demos sometimes.

    I am learning to paint with acrylics in a class taught by Wilfried Fathi. The demos, instruction, and studio are very good.

    Did the beginners glass blowing class and had an awesome time despite the heat! All of the instructors were great. Very knowledgeable, helpful and friendly.

    I have been taking a pottery class with Charlotte and love it. Great facilities, awesome teacher and a well rounded group of students make for a fantastic experience. The gallery and small shop is awesome and I am always delighted to see what is new. I recommend this as a downtown shopping stop and of course, the pottery class!

    Had a great time walking around and earning our photography badge at the city arts building. We had a large group they were able to accommodate and the girls enjoyed their classroom and outdoor time. We have also been here to see the other exhibits on final Fridays the city host. Great venue for local artist to display their creativity!

    Child's birthday party, for most of the kids it was there first time being there as well as mine anyway the instructor I believe itvwas Alicia was Awesome...great with the 14 kids and we had a lot of fun. However the artistic director who's name I can not remember was Extremely Rude and very impatient even snatching out of the kids hands...i feel there was a much better approach that should have been taken, I mean they are 10 years old. I was happy with the class but Will not return in the future and I know it rubbed some of the other parents the wrong way as well

👍👍 What a cool place for a lot of activities. Many things to do outside for kids and the family and good barbecue and selection on the menu. We liked it so much we went there more than once during our stay in Wichita.
