  • Auzzie is an amazing instructor, the demos she did were great and the class was so fun. The studio has a very comfortable vibe and the other students were lovely to learn alongside. I would definitely recommend to anyone curious about stained glass.
  • Excellent.
  • Daughter and I did the stained glass pet class and had a blast! Nicole, our instructor, was fantastic and was very helpful in helping us with our project! Thanks for a wonderful and memorable time that she and I will remember forever. Dawn and Jaylene
  • Auzzie is a fantastic teacher, she made the steps very clear and made us all feel successful with our pots. Fun!
  • We had the best time and learned so much. The flowers were so lush and the instruction was very well thought out. Hope to go back soon
  • I had such a wonderful experience attending this soap-making class! ?✨ The teacher was knowledgeable, patient, and very easy to learn from. He explained each step clearly and made the whole process fun and enjoyable. I learned so much about soap making and left the class feeling more confident and inspired to continue creating my own soaps. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and making this such a great experience. Highly recommended! ??
  • Abdul, is a great person to learn from. Very genuine and explains things so thoroughly and in a way anyone can understand.
  • This class and the studio were great. The instructor, Becca, is incredible. She is a skilled ceramicist and instructor. Instruction was well paced and everyone in the class seemed to be having fun, even my husband whom I dragged to take a class with me! This is the second class I’ve taken at Element Art Center (the other was stained glass) and I’d take a class again. Talented instructors in a fun and safe space.
  • It was a great class! The instructor Ms. MELISSA is amazing! Loved the class, I am glad I took it.♡
  • Thank you so much! I had a great time!
  • My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the ceramic charcuterie platter class. Teacher was great and value for the tuition cost was terrific. Watching your site for future classes of interest to us.
  • Class was exactly what I wanted it to be. Teacher was great and explained the steps in easy to understand directions.
  • Rachel was fabulous. She took the time to explain the different notes and how they work together. She was kind and patient.
  • Great comfortable, easy to follow class. I learned a lot and I made a couple friends in the process
  • The expectations were set from day one, which I greatly appreciated. The instructor was consistently engaging, and weekly updated or advised the students on next courses they could take at LACC. The class atmosphere was welcoming, students supported each other as well. I can’t wait to take another course at LACC! Thank you
  • It's always nice to take a class where you learn something and leave with an object you actually adore and want to display. this class was a great blend of process and product. It is fun to do on your own, but because there's some downtime while you're waiting for materials to solidify, it could be a lot of fun for a group of friends because it allows for a little more interaction.
  • Really really loved it
  • Sarita was such a gem! Loved this class. It was easy to follow, she was incredibly helpful, I always wanted to try throwing on a wheel and it was so much fun. 10/10 recommend!
  • I was worried that since my dog is black and white that the stained glass wouldn’t be as nice. Boy was I wrong! The finished product was so cute and beautiful! The instruction was clear and fun to do! Would completely recommend!
  • This was such a great class! Becca was super helpful and gave really easy to follow instructions. Definitely recommend!!
  • Melissa, our instructor at Los Angeles City College (LACC) for this Serger Basics class, covered the basics to get started with a Serger machine. She explained the principle and steps to thread a Serger machine , and maintenance. She explained how a Serger machine is different from a sewing machine. She used a Husqvarna Viking Serger machine and if you're going to participate in this class using a different brand, then I suggest to at least know the steps on how to thread your Serger machine, since there are subtle differences on threading a brand of Serger machine from another. For example, I used a Brother 1034D machine for the class, and the procedure to thread the lower looper on my machine is different from that of her Viking serger machine. It also helps to use different color thread cone for each thread to help you with pinpointing/troubleshoot tensions on your serger stitches. She showed steps on how to troubleshoot common issues with a four thread Serger stitch and how to adjust tensions to remedy it. She showed how to adjust Differential feed to sew stretch fabric. Now I'm ready to take on more advanced Serger courses both online and in-person.
  • Comfortable set-up, instructor was very informative and hands-on. I learned a lot as a result and signed up for the next course.
  • Very fun and rewarding evening!! Instruction was clear and it was amazing to see all the different creations come to life. Would recommend as solo, date night or friend experience. Light easy conversation sustained throughout the evening. All around good times :)
  • I enjoyed the 5 class session - Hemming at LA City College (LACC). Our instructor Jenine taught different kinds of Hems from standard hem to blind hem, narrow hem, coverstich hem, and jeans hem. The ability to do these Hems are practical skills, which can come in handy when altering new clothes for yourself and family members. It gives you the ability to do hems for free which would cost about $ 85 at the Alteration shop. I plan to take a couple more sewing courses at LACC such as Pattern Making, and Upcycling: The Jeans Tote - on reusing old clothes for new life. I highly recommend taking sewing classes at LACC.
  • Fun class to top the weekend off. Justin was great, the class chatty and fun, and a lot of great spoons at the end!
  • such a fun class!!!! i love this art studio!!! all the classes are so fun
  • Trudy was attentive to the individual needs of each student. Hoping she had another wall hanging weaving session soon.
  • a lot of fun, gets you off your phone and out of your head for a couple hours, and laura is the nicest and patient and will help as much as she can!
  • An amazing and motivating class. Our instructor was patient, efficient, and supportive. Can’t wait for Level 2!
  • This was a very positive experience and I'm quite happy with my spoon, especially as a first time carver. The first process is drawing out your spoon on a block of wood before it's cut down a bit, and it was great to see the variety of what everyone came up with. There were ten or so people participating, and the instructor was incredibly helpful and attentive. As the process of carving does take a while, they were also good about trying to engage everyone at tables to chat, though my table didn't need much help, even though most of us were strangers; this definitely works as a solo, date, or group activity. (Not in any way impacting the score, but just something to note: Take parking into account. I didn't see any lots around and needed to find parking at a meter and needed to walk a couple of blocks to reach the class.)
  • The best
  • As someone who has never done pottery before, I found the class to be extremely beginner friendly and supportive. My instructor was able to provide me with 1-on-1 support as needed. I would totally go back and do this again!
  • I came to the class with no drawing skills and left with the best thing I’ve ever made. It was also a fun date experience!
  • The class was super cool, especially if you've never done anything like this before. Our instructor - Chloe was very thorough and super helpful throughout the duration of the class. Looking forward to seeing the finished results! A great way to meet new people. Would highly recommend this class for a super fun, family and friends outting. Will definitley be taking more classes!
  • Great course with a fantastic instructor! Learned very quickly and had a fun time doing it.
  • I love my first class! Em was so sweet and had so much patience for all the students. She made sure to have a long one time with us to make sure we got what we needed! Gave us tips and all! Highly recommend this class! Can’t wait to come back and learn more.
  • Chloe was great. Her directions were simple and clear. It was a small class and she gave each individualized attention. Will look at other classes that are offered.
  • So much fun! Chloe is an amazing teacher. Will definitely take more classes at Element Art Center.
  • It was a lovely class with a patient instructor. It was only my friend and I in the class which was nice since it allowed the instructor to focus on us. I learned a lot and can’t wait to book another class
  • Chloe was awesome and the class was amazing! She broke down all of the steps, made it fun, was super helpful, 10/10 recommend! Love my linocut stamp and found a new hobby!!
  • Highly recommend to anyone who is interested in stained glass. The instructor was friendly, attentive, and thorough. She paced really well, you leave the class with solid foundation.
  • I recommend to prospective learner enrolling in Sewing Made Easy, Level 2 at Los Angeles City College. Our Instructor Melissa, showed the tips, steps to use a Sewing Pattern and improved my understanding of how to use it and gave me an understanding of clothing construction. Because of this class, I was able to sew five pairs of pajamas pants of varying sizes and gave it to my family as Christmas gifts.
  • This was so much fun and I had the best time
  • It was a perfect introduction into clay and sculpture.
  • Instructor Ivan was kind and helpful, and most welcoming. The time allotted was just about right. Nice small class size allowed for Ivan to give individual attention to participants. I would do this class or a similar class again, but would prefer to find something closer to my home in Costa Mesa.
  • This class was perfect! The teacher was great about explaining every step as well as helping everyone to get their pieces to look amazing!
  • I took this class Sunday December 14. The instructors were great and so helpful. I didn’t have any wine as I was driving, but there was a plentiful spread of drinks and snacks for anyone who wanted to partake. Making the charcuterie board was so much fun, I can’t wait to see what it looks like. I highly recommend this class or others like it as a group or date activity. The center is also located in Chinatown surrounded by a lot of great restaurants.
  • Great class! Parking was easy, studio was welcoming and clean, instructor was warm, knowledgeable, and funny. Honestly feel like I could do stained glass again on my own if I had the right equipment. Plus, I got a finished product I actually like!
  • This class was really fun. Chloe, our instructor, was so kind and extremely supportive. She is an excellent instructor. Everything was kept running on time, everyone had a complete project and time to choose their glaze. She broke down the process and helped us all feel confident using the wheel and sculpting our items. She learned and remembered everyone’s names as well which was so impressive! I would definitely recommend taking other classes with her at the Elementary Art Center.
  • Such a fun class! The instructors were very helpful while allowing you to have creative freedom and learn on your own. It was my first time working with stained glass and it might have jusy become a new hobby because of this class so thank you!!
