CREATE studio — Attraction in Lexington

My first impression of this place was terrible. We walked in and instead of being greeted warmly in a CHILDRENS place, we were immediately greeted with that they couldn’t support our 2 adult and 1 toddler party, keeping in mind this place is also a shop that sells toys.

I signed up my daughters for a four week art class thinking we would be led through projects- it was so much better than that!!
