“I really am happy I found this place, and that I can be 100% safe (from virus) in an exciting studio that inspires me to be my creative best. This is a place that gives me real joy, at a time when joy is badly needed. I get excited for my studio days. In this important time, it's reassuring for me to see how public health and safety is just built in, and it works. I'm happy to make an appointment in advance for the hours that I'll work, masked and distanced in a huge studio with only a few folks there. The owner, Lucy (with assistants), sanitize the place thoroughly, carefully, and often. She takes it very seriously and I know I'm safe when I'm there. Following the quarantine long ago, when everything seemed shut down and silent, I found MVPS and it changed my life entirely. It had been YEARS since I had my hands in clay. And, I explored hand-building pieces and a return to the potter's wheel, which challenges me every time. I love it. Everything I need is there; clay, wheels, and tools, and glazes. And, expert help from fun people. Of course, there are several kilns so I never have to wait more than a weekend, and finished works are waiting on the shelves. I didn't know that working with clay could bring so much happiness to my life. It feels great to find a place to explore my new obsession.”
“4/9/24 This is a delightful shop operated by Bonnie and resident jeweler, Jeffrey. I appreciate Jeffrey's jewelry designs for men and women and that there are many pieces and price points to choose from. My favorite go to was Gallery of Jewels on 24th Street but it closed a year or two ago. I am glad to have a new, wonderful place to find unique jewelry (and more) created by local artists!”
“I love this place! Peaceful, beautiful grounds,, and supportive no pressure classes. These classes have helped me loosen up, learn new things, meet wonderful people, and develop my creative side. I highly recommend O'Hanlon!!”
