You HAVE to check out this studio in Algiers Point! Just a quick trip across the river, you'll find the most beautiful views of the city, some amazing food, and this absolute gem in the Algiers Point community: Rosetree Blown Glass Studio. Shop for beautiful, one-of-a kind pieces or give yourself the ULTIMATE treat of participating in one of Mark's regular "Blow Your Own" events. What an incredible experience! Mark is a fantastic teacher who leads you the process of creating your very own piece. It is absolutely fascinating to see the whole process from start to finish, and I loved how "hands-on" it was. The entire Rosetree team is also incredibly friendly and welcoming; it feels like an afternoon hanging out with old friends in one of the cities most beautiful neighborhoods. You don't want to miss this! I've already signed up for my next event.

Gloria was flexible and accommodating host, and our entire party had a fabulous time! We met in City Park, where she thoughtfully surprised us with king cake. Gloria did a wonderful job talking us through the process of choosing what we would paint, and it was a relaxing experience, even for those of us who had never painted before. Everyone appreciated choosing their own subject, as that's usually not the norm in beginner painting classes. She had everything set up and ready for us in the perfect location and it was overall just a wonderful experience. After we finished, Gloria let us take some of her own beautiful art pieces home. Everyone thought it was very unique and memorable, and I'm very glad to have stumbled across her Facebook page. This was a much different experience than any Painting with a Twist type class, and that's a good thing! Absolutely beautiful way to start the day, and I would recommend it to anyone looking to have a relaxing encounter with their artistic side.

My mom, sister, daughter and I were looking for something to do on a "girls day". We decided to stroll and shop on Magazine Street - and came upon the Shard Shop! WOW!
