I think that this place is great! I can spend a whole day sitting in the art studio painting pottery and the final product is always SO rewarding. Even better, I get to use it! I love all the...

My daughter and I had a play date here. It was quite nice, we all had a great time. Prices were reasonable and the kids were happy with their "painting" projects. I am going back for a lesson in glass...

I love Aran's. My daughter and I usually take one of her cousins or a friend during vacation time or on a weekend. Great rainy day spot. :-)

My daughter and I spent the afternoon of Christmas Eve day at Aran's Art Studio (f.k.a. Aran's Color and Glaze). Every time I go I tell myself to pick a project that doesn't require a lot of detail,...

This place used to be in a bigger location, but it is still very fun. You choose whatever you want to paint and then choose from a large variety of colors and stencils. You don't have to be artistic at all,...

Aran's is art for the people! This is a charming place to while away an afternoon with some cool people and nice projects. Choose from pre-painted ceramics, fused glass, thrown-clay among other...

We just discovered Aran's and we are digging it. Large, inviting studio with lots of fun stuff to try. Pre-made ceramics you can paint yourself, hand-thrown clay classes, fused glass and more. Drop in and just...

I took my mom and sister to celebrate a birthday. We literally spent the entire day there and painted and painted and painted. They put up with me and my loud mouth. We had the best time! We were...

My daughter went here for a friend's birthday party. All the kids got to hand glaze a pottery item. Not only did they have a great time, but the bowl she made (which you get later) is genuinely attractive, and...

Aran's is great! They are flexible and you can have a group of friends go and have a great time. I love working with the fused glass.

Aran's recently moved to more spacious, well-lit space right across the courtyard, and still in Castro Village. It's a fun place to create an original work of art, and they have a nice selection of...

I highly recommend Aran's Colour and Glaze studio especially if you have kids. The process goes that you go in, and choose a ceramic piece to paint. They have many pieces to choose from and also...

This review is for the Cafe that left a bad taste in my mouth:Doug J. ordered the worst tuna sandwich I have ever encountered. Dark meat tuna in whole chunks, kalamata olives, a very tangy, salty and...

Fun place to go with kids and paint ceramic pieces. A bit pricey but a good way to spend a rainy afternoon. The sandwiches are wonderful. Service isn't always the best but it is a very casual eating...

The lunch here is everything you could ask for from a soup/sandwich/salad cafe. The soup is often different and I've never had a bad one. Aran is really sweet and obviously a hard worker and the...

I've been here a few times and always enjoyed it. Though my artwork never comes out as beautiful as it did in my head. Not Aran's fault though. I've still liked every piece. It does get better...

Not only can you create beautiful ceramic and glass art, you can also enjoy Aran's wonderful sandwiches and home-made soups. I highly recommend the grill cheese sandwich. Check out Aran's calendar of...

Aran's is a Ceremic/Glaze studio - AND a cafe! The food is awesome - and reasonably priced. They also have a Ladies Night, and I think you can have events there as well.
