Some Customers' Comments
"Awesome place - loved the "Toddler Area"!"

"Beautiful studio and website; look forward to spending many relaxing hours fueling my creativity (so much cheaper than therapy!)"

"I have been to Art - Gecko in Pleasant Hill twice and it was a wonderful experience. My daughter is 3 1/2 and we spent 3 hours painting on the first day they opened.  The next week our entire playgroup went there and had a blast.  So if you are looking for Christmas or Hanukkah gifts it is great!! Trish the manager is very helpful and accomodating."

"I love this place. It's very user friendly - we came in and could start working right away. Things were easy to find."

"We love this place. Our son loves to do crafts and it's something we can't do at home. Thank you."

"We are glad to have you in our neighborhood"

The difference is that this facility has a toddler play area!! My two children and another Mom and her two boys spent two hours there recently! The selection of things to paint and create is plentiful! ......."
