“Paula and Mark were so lovely and fun to work with! We had made plans to make our glass pieces with only 2 days notice. They were both very informative and educational in the experience! I would highly recommend Fire Studio and Gallery for your slightly hands on glass experience! We love our new pieces!”
“Absolute GEMS! This boutique went above and beyond with customer service. They held a piece of art for me to come in and get, and when I dropped my baby’s shoe while checking out they emailed me to let me know they had it. Went back to get it and one of the employees (I forget your name but I love you!) brought it out to the car for me because my kids were asleep. You all have my business for life! And obviously they have incredible local art.”
“So far so good. The owner was kind enough to give me a general estimate over the phone and was very helpful in store. Looking forward to seeing the finished piece.”
“My husband and I decided to commemorate our anniversary by visiting this beautiful place! We booked our experience with Mark. It was such a fun and memorable experience! Mark was a great teacher and explained the whole process as we went! 12/10 recommend!!!”

“I cannot say enough great things about this studio. It is clean, warm and welcoming. I just got my first tattoo from Cori and it was the best possible experience I could’ve had. She designed my infinity tattoo just the way I wanted and made me feel so comfortable during the entire process. I LOVE my tattoo!”
“Fantastic studio; you can watch the artists making beautiful things. You can order something custom made and see it being made or even help make it.
It's worth it just to come see the artists working and the amazing art for sale.”

“I took a try it class at Payne Street in October, followed by the five week session class in November. I really loved the experience. Shelley was my instructor for the try-it class and Tonya and Sarah were the instructors for the session class. They were friendly, helpful, and really made sure that we knew what we were doing. I never sensed even a second of impatience from them. The atmosphere was incredibly warm and welcoming. I’m honestly sad the classes are over but I plan on taking more because I loved it so much. I highly recommend PSP to anyone looking to try out ceramics.”

“Paul has been a huge supporter of photographic artists and the photographic arts for many years. His Gallery reflects not only his great taste, but the diversity of artists that he collects. Do yourself a favor and check it out when in town.”
“In 2019 or 2020, I received a tattoo on my right inner wrist of my husband's first name 'Malcolm' inside of the Egyptian symbol for eternity/forever (♾). It costed $80, and I think the tattoo artist was the owner. The following is a picture of the tatt moments after it was completed:”
“The Goodall Gallery is a beautiful light and color filled art & performance space that everyone LOVES!! I have helped with 2 music events there that were near perfection...and Rhonda Goodall,Owner/artist is a delightful sparkle of sunshine, greeting every art inquiry with a great story behind the work....she also has a great teaching space in the back and is making plans for many more classes and concerts...Go visit her at Goodall Gallery asap!! Whatta unique and magical place!!♡♡♡”
“Chris is the best in the business! I’ve used him for several projects and have yet to find something he can’t do. Spectacular craftsmanship at a fair price. Highly recommend!!”
“Cool place to go to if you're into local art without pretention. It's a nice exhibition space with various pieces for sale. The collection is varied, so there's probably something here for everyone. And there's nothing over $6,000.
There's also a very small gift shop.”
“This is one of my favorite stores in town. I love how cute this store is and how many cool local artist sell there. Highly recommend checking it out. Great for locals and a must for visiting if you're from out of town!”
“An interesting free self guided tour to watch artisans in glass making ornaments and paperweights. A roving attendant is available to ask questions. Learning the basics to melting the raw glass, loading a rod, shaping, coloring and the use of alternating heating, rolling, cooling, etc was enjoyable. An excellent gift shop with a broad range of low to high end pieces is the centerpiece. There is also a commercial hands on area available as well as a paid tour to participate with glass workers.”
“We had a private party tonight with Jayda and she was a great instructor! She accommodated us when we wanted to add cats to the dog design. Can’t wait for the next event here :)”

“My husband and I visited Louisville for our anniversary and came across Unorthodox while looking for unique places to check out — and we’re so glad we did! This ended up being one of our absolute favorite stops of the trip.
The shop is full of fascinating and unusual treasures — there’s so much to explore! We left with several incredible pieces for our collection, including snake bones, a skunk skull, some amazing books, art, and jewelry. Our two boys came along and were just as thrilled — they picked out some bug displays, and our youngest hasn’t stopped showing off his red fox tail since we left.
Such a fun and memorable experience for the whole family. We can’t wait to come back!”
