Artworks Studio — Local services in Jacksonville

I signed my daughter up for a Harry Potter Art Camp this summer, but Sara Gant from Artworks sent out an emailing saying the camp would have to be rescheduled because the AC unit was broken in the building. She offered a full refund to those who could not make the new date (a month later). This was more than reasonable.

What was not reasonable, is that I replied to that email the next day (June 17th) with my sympathies for their AC situation but also with a request for a refund ($130), as we would not be able to make the new date.

They did many things in class that I would not have been able to...

The best part of my day is heading to artworks to get creative and have fun. They offer a little bit of everything and host different sorts of get togethers and classes, so definitely check out the calendar on their website. I’ve tried their pottery, journaling and clay classes and everything has...
