I’ve been to the AR workshop in Frederick, MD twice and had an awesome experience both times. The staff and organization are wonderful! I came with a friend this past weekend and Cara was our main leader for our projects. She gave us the perfect amount of direction and offered some creative tips and techniques. Very professional, but also personable, encouraging and clearly loves her job. Even though I don’t think you can go wrong with any of the employees at this location (based on the atmosphere I’ve witnessed on my 2 visits), my friend and I are planning our next visit when Cara is working as she was that awesome! Even if you’re not the “artist type,” you’ll be blown away by what you can create with a bit of guidance. I’d highly recommend for a fun activity with friends, a date, family, party, or solo. You can byob any type of beverage and/or snacks which is an added bonus. Although not required, I’d recommend to bring a bit of cash as if you have a helper/leader that goes above and beyond, you may feel inclined to leave a tip :)...

I called other businesses and a different AR location with no luck on booking because we were less than 24 hours out. So as a last ditch effort I gave it a shot and called the Frederick location...not only did Adrienne answer but she was so gracious to schedule us. She and her assistant China made us feel as if we were life-long friends just hanging out making awesome woodworking pieces! The instructions were so easy and they made sure we had a great time. All of our pieces turned out awesome. They went above and beyond to make sure each person was 110% satisfied with our pieces. To say we had a blast is an understatement. I will definitely be going back! I can't wait to get to book the next business outing here and attend a workshop, as well! Thanks ladies for the best day! You are amazing at...
Read moreAR Workshop in Frederick is a MUST VISIT shop! Whether you're looking for a unique gift or interested in getting crafty, there is something for YOU! Here's the best part: the staff is STELLAR! Both Adrienne and her workshop staff are truly customer-focused. My quick story: I made a mistake on a wooden sign I created there and only noticed the error AFTER I left the shop. I came back three days later, unannounced, and they corrected the typo on the spot, no charges, no questions asked and the nicest customer care you could expect. This is a great spot for work retreats, a girls' night out, birthday parties for kids or adults--the possibilities are infinite. You can BYOB too! A great local business with...
