Art as a Healing Practice

For over 3 decades this has been a self care practice for me and I have been teaching these wellness tools for the past 20 years. Self expression is a birth right! Sometimes we just need to breathe, re-connect and rest. You can join me online or in person!

REVIEWS FROM OUR CUSTOMERS AND STUDENTS

Carey from Solvay said...

"Awesome calming space.. Talented Instructor!! Can't wait for next class!"

 

Karina from Clay said...

"Started at the art center as a teen and came back for more lessons as an adult. Very talented teachers, great atmosphere and reasonably priced!"

 

Erin from Syracuse said...

 "A group of us from work went last night and had the best time. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming and everyone found a painting to do that they loved. I have been to other paint experiences and this was by far the best and we will definitely be back in the future!!!"

 

James from Syracuse said...

Once you ease into the space, you make an inspiration selection. They have several pre-done pieces you can choose from to replicate. Throughout the night, you can sip on your drinks, snack on your snacks and have awesome conversation with strangers or your closest friends. The staff guide you through the painting, so there is no reason to feel embarrassed about your artistic ability! It is a great overall experience no matter what. I have no reservations with this place! 5/5 easy. My partner and I did a split painting which consists of two paintings coming together to make one. It is super neat.  Will be back to do more!

  

Jen from Syracuse said...

" It was so fun, and relaxing. I'm not an artist, like zero ability. However I was able to create a painting I really like with the instruction of the Artists at Liverpool Arts Center. There were a lot of choices to paint, and everything we needed to paint our own masterpiece! Everyone was so nice and really helpful. This would be a great night out with the girls, date night or even a solo outing to just zen out and paint!"

 

Beverly from Italy said...

"Sandy and her staff were great. This Paint class was a Yelp event for elites and I'm glad we attended. I will definitely keep this venue in mind for future group events,  like team building events, socials, etc. Good job!"

 

Kelly from Baldwinsville said...

" It was so much fun choosing among the many painting options and then making it come to life. I learned that anyone can make art with a little time & guidance. Great night out with friends or a fun alternative for lots of different events. Try it!"

 

Aimee from Rockville MD...

"I wanted to do something different for my Bridal Shower and reached out to Sandra at Liverpool Art Center to see if a paint class would be a good fit for our group of 20. She was great! Her and my mom worked out all the logistics to have enough seats for everyone, a table for gifts and food and the ability to decorate. They even went and bought 2 new tables to accommodate us! We got there early to set up and everything worked out perfectly. We all picked our own paintings and everyone really seemed to have a great time. I would definitely recommend this for a group for any event! Thanks for a great time :)"

 

Tanya from Somerville MA

"Sandi is amazing! Many students have been coming here for years and are still discovering new ways to create art. She brings the best out in everyone's ability, even when you don't realize you have it in you, whether you're just starting out or have been at it for years. LAC is a very comfortable and supportive place to be, a fun place to meet many different people, and there's always lots of different activities going on besides just art classes."
