- December 6, 2021"I recently took a portrait painting class at Davis studio and enjoyed it very much. We learned a lot of technique and color theory, and our teacher Mallory struck the perfect balance between suggestions/help and letting us figure out on our own how we were going to achieve our vision. I'm looking forward to my next class!"- Leah Heaney-Forbes
- October 27, 2021"I love the Davis Studios adult classes. It’s so fun to hear the kids bumping around in the building and appreciate the opportunities and confidence the fine staff undoubtedly provide them for starting the process early."- cfgkueffner
- July 14, 2017"My 8 yr old daughter absolutely loved her time attending Davis Studio summer camp this year. I appreciated the one day options available for the July 4th week and we signed her up for 3 days. The space is wonderful, her teacher/counselor Lydia was very friendly, super creative about projects and materials, and set a wonderful tone of exploration and fun for the week. My daughter came home on Friday with several actual art pieces and I was hugely impressed with the access she had to so many high quality materials, as well as the guidance for what to do with them. This camp was well worth the money and I feel good supporting a local, woman-owned business that encourages the arts. My daughter is already looking forward to attending a fall class."- ShayneG
- March 31, 2017"Davis Studio is an amazing place. My children first started taking art classes at their location on Howard Street. It has been terrific to see all the great changes at their new space. My youngest child has been involved with Davis Studio recently with a group-Friends on the Go. She has special needs and Teresa has been so accommodating to her and the other kids in the group. We are so happy to display Ella's art alongside her older brother and sister's paintings. It is wonderful to have this art studio in our community. All the instructors we have met through the years have been more than qualified to offer unique experiences to my children. We have taken classes, hosted birthday parties and been guests at other parties. We have always enjoyed our time at the studio and we have a home full of art as a result of these great times!"- Bthabault
- March 31, 2017"My 7 year old daughter loves the Davis Studio! She has done several camps there and always comes home with a variety of amazing creations. I love how she gets to experiment with different media and techniques and she has a blast. She (and I) highly recommend Davis Studio!"- rwallace
- March 30, 2017"Have had birthday parties here and the kids had a blast. The new location is great."- davesird
- March 30, 2017"Look no further for a vast variety of art programs to nurture every artist within. High quality instruction and materials set in a light filled and state of the art studio centrally located for easy access. Find top notch teachers to nurture your kid's creativity. There is something for everyone young and old, traditionally schooled or home-schooled all week long!"- Jeanette
- March 30, 2017"My daughter attended 2 summer camps at Davis Studio last year and absolutely loved them. I was very impressed with the staff who are knowledgeable and caring. My daughter learned so much and has been inspired to really focus herself on bettering her skills. This is not just a make and take kind of camp, rather an art class with a twist of fun. My daughter was very proud of all she learned and her art work."- jensanta
- March 30, 2017"My daughter attended camp at Davis Studio last summer, and of all the summer camps she's attended Davis really stood out as her absolute favorite. The instructors were terrific, the space is big and bright and lovely, and the classes were creative and fun. She has some special physical needs, and the wood shop teacher went out of his way to make her a special jig so she could make her projects more independently and easily. And my favorite part as a parent: the cafe makes great lunch so I don't have to pack one! I would highly recommend to other families and can't wait for my daughter to go back this summer."- Kitsune
- March 30, 2017"My daughter took a one-day class recently geared toward kids of all ages with special needs. The instructor was amazing - accommodating for all ability levels, clear with her instruction, and very encouraging. She supported the fact that each child interpreted the mixed media project in their own way, and each child left the class with a beautiful piece of art that they were very proud of. My daughter's looks amazing hanging on my wall!"- cbterrapinvt
- March 30, 2017"Our family loves the Davis Studio. They do such a great job of making your child feel welcome. The teachers are patient, kind, and so very talented. All of the projects that have come from my daughter's participation in camps, classes and birthday parties are treasured!! We love the new location and the cafe is the best. We are so grateful for the Davis Studio - a wonderful place for art, food and friendship!!"- Sflemer
- March 30, 2017"Our Son Connor, age 10 and daughter Clara age 8, have attended Davis Studio Art Camps for years. We have been impressed with Davis Studio since day 1. The instructors are well educated, talented and are personal to your child and always full of positive words. Everyone is warm and friendly which leaves the parents at ease when dropping off their child for camp knowing they will be safe and happy. The director, Theresa Davis clearly have a vision and it animates the entire experience of the young artists. The art projects are made with quality materials. The paintings, personal portraits, and creative art sculptures are beautiful pieces of art. The performance that they hold at the end of the session is amazing, especially after only one week! All the children are happy and want to stay longer. I would HIGHLY recommend these camps to anyone!!!"- Jeremy & Ruthy Watson
- March 30, 2017"We LOVE Davis Studio!! My daughter has taken full-day art classes and half-day writing classes as a homeschooler. We have taken a fused glass workshop together. The staff are friendly, professional and encouraging. Cafe on site is a bonus for those days when we didn't have time for breakfast or want something special for lunch. SO GLAD we found this place!"- tvr319
- March 30, 2017"We love the Davis Studio! All of the staff is extremely helpful and caring! We are so happy to have found such a great place to practice the arts. The food at the Starving Artist Cafe is also amazing! My kids can't wait to take their next class."- momto3girls
- March 30, 2017"We love the Davis Studio! Davis has offerings for everyone in our family. My daughter attends the Friday preschool art sessions and comes home with a range of well made and authentic pieces each time. We then stay for lunch, which is delicious and family friendly. Such a great add to our community."- liannecleary
- March 28, 2017"My husband and I have attended a bunch of fused glass workshops for adults, and my daughter is a regular at the summer camps. She insists on at least one camp per summer, and the variety they offer makes it difficult for her to choose which camp to attend. I've always been very impressed with the various types of projects they create and the quality of the ideas that the counselors bring to each camp."- Kitnic
- March 22, 2017"Davis Art Studio is Awesome! I signed my daughter up for a couple camps last summer because there isn't much else other than art that really interest her and she is too old for rec camp. She loved it! They put on an amazing week of camp and no two are alike. She was totally engaged each week and would come home and practice what she learned that day. At the end of the week, there is a reception for parents at pick up time that allows the kids to showcase their work just like in a real studio. I didn't hear a complaint about having to go once. For the kids who are still wiggly, they do go outside around lunch which is often to a park that's within walking distance. Kids can bring their own lunch but if they choose lunch can be purchased at the cafe which serves amazing and healthy lunches. Great way to get a picky eater to try new things!"- Mbkellogg
- March 20, 2017"Great for teens! Here is a professional art studio in a convenient friendly setting. I took my granddaughter to a reception for her friend's digital photography class. We were both so impressed with the quality of the work. I've signed her up for a summer art class and can't wait to see the show at the end of the week."- BusyB
- March 17, 2017"My son and daughter have all taken several classes and camps at Davis Studio over the years. They have all been exceptional, inspiring and very fun! My kids have done everything from theatre, painting, glass making and graffiti (to name a few favorites). We feel lucky to have such a passionate + amazing place for our children to explore all mediums."- mernie19
- March 16, 2017"I'm happy to say that I have been to two classes at the Davis Studio and I'm impressed. I have a daughter with intensive special needs and they hold a class once a month for kids with Special Needs. It's so nice to be welcomed into the community by such an amazing group of people."- mmarinovich
- March 15, 2017"Both of my sons, now ages 13 and 9, have enjoyed classes at Davis Studio for several years, in both the former and current locations. In learning to draw, paint, and create, they developed fine motor skills, self-confidence, and appreciation for art. The new building is fantastic, with so many spacious, well-lit rooms, more variety in class options, outdoor play area and a fabulous bakery-cafe for lunches (and coffee for busy parents at drop off time). The location is convenient and parking is ample. Davis Studio is always at the top of my family's list for vacation camps and summer time fun!"- janetfranz
- March 15, 2017"I have been going by your new place for awhile now and have been wanting to try some classes will be signing up soon!"- Vermonter28
- March 15, 2017"I love David Studio and more importantly my kids love it too!!! They are so creative especially in the variety of summer camps that they offer and are always so excited for a child to learn to express themselves through art! I would highly recommend Davis Studio to everyone!"- Lundquist
- March 15, 2017"I love everything about the Davis Studio- what an incredible space they have created- for families, children, and adults! We have visited several times for the Family Nights (which we love), my girls are signed up for summer camp, and I'm taking my first adult workshop. The cafe is amazing as well- this place is a gem in the Burlington area. Thanks for all you do!"- KDooley
- March 15, 2017"My daughter attended a vacation day class and had a blast. She learned lots of new techniques that she uses now every day, and she came home with an amazing piece that she is super proud of. She wants to go to Davis Studio all the time! Signed up for summer camp and totally looking forward to it! Thank you for the work you do!"- emily.rossier
- March 15, 2017"My daughter has done preschool art and recently, a cartooning class at Davis Studio. It has always been a great experience that she really enjoys. They offer plentiful and quality materials, inspiration, and supportive instruction with lots of room for experimentation, individuality, and fun. Preschool art times were always fun for me too, as I got to play right along with her! I look forward to taking my youngest to those when he is older. Many of those preschool art projects are still on display in our home - canvas paintings, ceramics, and a self portrait she did are among my favorites. But we also really enjoyed the more ephemeral experience-based art, like shaving cream art, spin painting, or making designs with paint and salt. As for the recent cartooning class, my daughter left with a lot of enthusiasm for her cartooning and has been drawing characters and panels often in her free time!"- mangofandango
- March 15, 2017"My daughter has loved every Davis Studio camp she's attended. And the quality and quantity of her artwork has been impressive. Our walls continue to hold her artwork because they are beautiful. She'll be going back this summer and is super excited."- melissaj
- March 15, 2017"My daughter LOVES the Davis Studio! Her creativity has blossomed there. She loves doing art and thinks the playground is fantastic. And it's really fun!"- Elena+Elizabeth
- March 15, 2017"My kids have attended 2 days of camps at Davis Studio and loved it! It was one of the first camps they've attended that they 'loved'. They came home with so much proof of all that they do with kids. They even spent time outside. They loved it so much, it was the first camp they asked me to sign them up for for the Summer. Highly recommended!"- wilsons4vt
- March 15, 2017"My three daughters have been doing after school classes and painting camps for the last ten years and they absolutely love the Davis Studio. The owner Teresa is a great artist, she's friendly, accessible and the kids love her. Their new location is great and all the teachers have always been skilled, patient and nurturing. We have wonderful paintings all over the house, the ones from the Jackson Pollack camps from last year's summer camp are my favorite! The theater camps are pretty awesome too; we have awesome videos of the Wizard of Oz & Annie ;)"- Geniehenry
- March 15, 2017"My two daughters have taken a number of classes at Davis Studio and have always had a great experience. The instructors are engaged and friendly, and work well with my children. The new studio is lovely, with a place to have a cup of tea and read a book while you wait to pick up your child. Highly recommended!"- ver"mom"ter
- March 15, 2017"The Davis Studio is a special place. Our younger son (9 yo) has been attending (once a week) the Art & Academic Enrichment full-day program for 2 years now. It is amazing. The program is broken down into 6-week units and at the end of each unit, the kids present their learning and work in a reception. The units range from robotics to Oceania to Native Americans (and the kids get to suggest new unit ideas!). The teachers take the kids on a deep dive of each subject while also allowing for self-directed learning. The children prepare for the reception where they hone their presentation skills. The class sizes are great and very conducive to high-level learning. Our son has formed some wonderful friendships with the kids in his class and loves all of the teachers! If you have a child who enjoys the arts and is looking for extended learning, look no further -- the Davis Studio is it!"- Horselover17
- March 15, 2017"The Davis Studio is the place where my 12 year old can relax, be creative, and have fun with other children and adults. The programs and teachers have definitely played an important role in her overall education, especially while homeschooling during middle school. She has attended theater camp, Art & Academic Enrichment, Writing, and will soon experience her first Paint Night. She LOVES it! As a parent, I am grateful that my daughter is happy and relaxed in the space and when she comes home. The kind, fun, and talented teachers have fully supported her growth as a human being and artist. I can definitely see improvement in the way she approaches a project as well as the final result. My only complaint is that we don't have enough time to fit in more classes. An added benefit is that I've started taking classes and am finding the artist in me...it's never too late!"- Tricia Gustafson
- March 15, 2017"What an amazing studio. They have so much to offer. My daughter attended a fused glass class here last year with a group of girls and it was a big hit! They learned a lot and had a ton of fun. Plus, the outdoor play space is one of the most creative I've seen. I'm planning to sign her up for a summer camp this year!"- Momofthree738
- June 19, 2014"My 4 year old has attended preschool art classes with Martina for the past couple of years, and she really loves it. The project ideas are so creative and varied, and the materials are high quality and interesting. While inspiration is provided in the form of example projects or suggestions, the kids are given all the space they need to go in any direction they want to with their individual projects, which I think is great. The kids also work on a canvas each session, and while they are free to use it however they want, some guidance towards making it a project they can build on is given, which is helping my kiddo develop her ideas around painting quite a bit. We love this class!"- mangofandango
- June 19, 2014"My 7 yr old daughter took the Imaginary Landscapes 1-wk camp last summer and had an outstanding experience. The depth of exploration and creativity was incredible, especially for such a youngster. She was guided to envision a whole new world - what it looked like, its flag, its map, its customs, its people. A journal that accompanied the project became a rich keepsake of this rewarding experience. Highly recommend Teresa Davis!"- SpecialKinVT
- October 16, 2013"Our 7-year-old son loves Davis Studio. So it was my pleasure to refer a friend of mine to Davis Studio. Her daughter tried out Davis Studio for one summer class. Then she was a convert, and has become a repeat customer. Plus, she has thanked me multiple times for referring her to Davis Studio."- Jason Lorber
- August 22, 2013"I took my 3-year-old daughter to a Preschool Art class at the Davis studio this spring and it was FANTASTIC! She had an absolute blast and I was super impressed with the level of projects the kids created. The instructor was great and the studio was so clean, bright, and inspiring while being kid-friendly. We'll definitely go back!"- SSZemanek
- January 21, 2013"Outstanding! Our son (who is 6-1/2 years old) has taken multiple classes from Davis Studio, and he loves it. It's fun, engaging, and the teachers interact personally with him, taking great stock in his overall experience there. Plus, after each camp he attends (and he's attended several), he grows by leaps and bounds artistically. And that's just not in what he creates. It's also by his enhanced understanding and appreciation of art. We love it when he shares with us what he's learned in class, whether it's about Matisse, or a certain painting technique. In our family, we view art not just as an end until itself, but also as a means of expression and interpreting/helping shape the world us. We feel that Davis Studio furthers that view. His classes have been taught by a variety of teachers at Davis Studio, and we've been impressed by the consistently high caliber of staff. We strongly recommend Davis Studio."- Jason Lorber
- December 3, 2012"Can't say enough about Teresa Davis and her teachers. She has been doing art and teaching for such a long time, with passion, energy, understanding, and an insistance on positive encouragement. If you want your kids to make REAL, gift-worthy art and actually learn techniques instead of just 'play', Davis studio is IT. You'll never look elsewhere again."- hboucher619
- November 11, 2012"Thank you Davis Studio and Teresa! We just celebrated our daughters 5th birthday today with an Acrylic Painting Party at Davis Studio. With 13 of her friends joining her, they all had so much fun and the art work created was PRICELESS. It was fun for the adults too. I forgot my cake server and ice-cream scoop and she had it covered. If you're looking for a fun and easy place to have your celebration I recommend you book your party at Davis Studio! My 12 year old can't wait to have her party there. Check it out you wont be disappointed!"- jdt3
- October 2, 2012"I LOVE THE DAVIS STUDIO not just for my kids Savana & Pierce, but myself as well. My favorite for the kids is the Holiday gift making class. I was very surprised at the quality and uniqueness of the creations. I signed them up in August just to make sure they got in. I have a beautiful painting my son did of a penguin in my office. Makes me smile every time I see it. Tonight I took my first adult glass jewelry making class. All of a sudden two hours was up. Can't wait to go back next Tuesday and see the pieces, then turn them into jewelry. Vermont is an awesome state for art. Thank you for providing something so valuable to my kids, myself, and our community. Jennifer Goslovich."- PierVana
- September 27, 2012"I can't express enough praise for the Davis Studio! The quality of instruction is fantastic and the opportunities are unique and varied. My daughter has been attending camps and classes at the Davis Studio for the past 7 years. She loves it there and even had her birthday party there last year - they do amazing art-based birthday parties!! Because of her experiences and education at the Davis Studio, my daughter appreciates art, feels comfortable drawing and painting, and has fun exploring different art forms. Theresa Davis along with her staff has provided a safe, educational, fun, comfortable and unique opportunity for art exploration in Burlington. I am constantly recommending the Davis Studio to my friends and I would absolutely recommend it to all readers here - if you and your kids haven't been there yet, you are missing out!!"- VTpenguinMOM
- September 25, 2012"A fantastic resource for the community. Both my girls (ages 15 and 8) have attended many summer and vacation camps over the years. Consistently creative, fun, and engaging. My house is full of their very colorful paintings!"- Kim Moran
- September 24, 2012"Davis Studio provides an amazing artistic experience! Teresa has a magical way of sharing her energy and enthusiasm. My children have attended Davis Studio camps and programs for several years and have always come away with new skills, quality projects and an expanded artistic view. Teresa is so gifted at working with children and helping them to discover new perspectives at whatever artistic level they are at -She and her programs are truly a gem!!!"- prieley
- September 24, 2012"My daughter has done 2 acrylic painting classes and a theater camp this past winter. I'm always amazed at Teresa's energy and enthusiasm. We look forward to sending our other children to the art and theater camps soon!"- jennvp
- September 23, 2012"Our kids (now 6 and 9) have been attending classes at the Davis Studio for years and have loved every session from painting to treehouse modeling to short film making. Theresa and her staff are amazing!"- jperkinson
- September 23, 2012"Teresa Davis and her instructors have opened a whole new world for me. After 45 years as an educator and school administrator, I have found a new sense of creativity and pure joy. Davis Studio is a warm and open space where anyone at any age can find support and fulfillment. I had no idea that my retirement would evolve in this way. In fact, I no longer see myself as a retiree. I am an artist. I look forward to bringing my grandchildren to VT next summer to experience the Davis Studio's programs for children."- RejoyceVT
- September 22, 2012"Both my children (now ages 6 and 7) have taken classes and camps at the Davis Studio. Each and every one has had high quality instruction, been tons of fun and resulted in amazing artwork. Theresa and all the Davis Studio instructors love what they do and pass the art bug on to the kids (and adults). You won't be disappointed."- Anya
- September 22, 2012"Davis Studio also has great classes for adults! Teresa was so supportive and creative in her approach and broke down the elements of how to draw for even the most stick-figure-challenged. She really understood what each participant wanted to get out of the class and tailored her instruction to our interests. I highly recommend her classes!"- Lynda
- September 22, 2012"I love the Davis Studio! My daughter, age 11, has taken two courses there and is signed up to take another. She has fallen in love with art, and we've taken two trips to museums to find Impressionist Paintings. She now 'teaches art classes to us here at home, and makes museum displays about certain artists. The Davis Studio has given her so much. The artwork that she made in class is absolutely gorgeous and treasured! I am blown away by what the Davis Studio has brought into our household! We love the Davis Studio so much that we have now signed up our 16 year old to take classes there. The wide variety of classes offered is truly amazing!"- Wendy Mackenzie
- September 22, 2012"My children have participated in numerous homeschool art classes at Davis Studio and have LOVED each one. Painting, drawing, clay and creative writing are just some of the classes they have been a part of. Teresa Davis is an amazing instructor who spends time teaching the children the skills needed to develop their interest and skill. Teresa is patient with younger children and knows how to challenge older children at their level."- kaight
- September 22, 2012"My daughter has attended many school vacation camps and summer camps. We love the Davis studio and all of the teachers"- donna
- September 22, 2012"My first introduction to the Davis Studio was while looking for an art camp for my teenaged daughter. Opportunities seem to get few and far between by the time our children reach middle & high school. What a pleasure it has been to discover the Davis Studio! She participated in a week long advanced drawing class and left with new skills, new appreciations, and an overflowing portfolio of new work, including one of her original's framed and ready to hang. That gesture was very appreciated. I love the convenient location on Pine Street and discovered other hidden gems in this artsy neighborhood, the best being the home of Meyer's Bagels. Coming from the Mad River Valley did not seem to be a haul at all, as my daughter's experience was a highlight of her summer, nurtured her love of art, and prepared her for the beginning of her high school art career. More than anything, the staff at the Davis Studio helped my daughter to identify as an artist. Thank you!"- MadRiverLibrarian
- September 22, 2012"My kids have been going to Davis Studio camps for many years and love it! Now I'd like to recommend a Saturday morning sampler for older kids and adults. My daughter, a freshman in high school, tried 'Introduction to Oil Painting' last weekend and came away with the discovery that she really liked oils. I think she had been afraid to try. She completed an 8 x 10 landscape and was quite proud of it. This is the best way to try something new or improve skills in something you like. Next we'll try the fused glass class. Check out the Saturday morning samplers!"- jspasyk
- September 22, 2012"My seven-year-old son participated in two summer camps this year: Matisse and the Wild Beasts and Jackson Pollock. He loved them both! His art experience prior to these camps was very limited, but he fell right into place in the classes and, under the guidance of Teresa (Matisse) and Lydia (Pollock), absorbed so much and created these incredible pieces of art we now have hanging on the walls. He will definitely be returning for more fun next summer."- Martha
- September 22, 2012"My son has gone to many different Davis Studio camps and classes over the years and has loved every one of them: drama camps, improv comedy, stop-motion animation, and various painting classes. Theresa, MC Baker and the other teachers are incredibly skilled at providing a warm, welcoming environment while also teaching art skills in simple ways that bring the best of my child. The end results are pretty incredible. I've also recently discovered the adult classes and am hooked (on fused glass) and the Saturday morning samplers. Why should the kids have all the fun!?!"- hawklover
- September 22, 2012"Teresa Davis has the best art classes in the city. My son took her one day drawing class and loved it."- zgmom
- September 22, 2012"The Saturday sampler classes at the Davis Studio are perfect for the busy person that wants to figure out how to get some creativity back into their life. I took the class on doodling and was amazed at what I was able to do with some good coaching. Now, I am doodling all the time! The space is beautiful and the cost was very reasonable. I loved it!"- SueM
- September 22, 2012"We were super impressed by Davis Studio's Wizards Camp this summer. Our son spent the week learning about dragons and scepters, building their own pieces of art from high quality materials--many of which are now proudly displayed around our home."- Adriel
- September 22, 2012"Wonderful, creative atmosphere to get kids inspired. So many benefits to exploring with art...definitely worth it!"- LadyMacbeth

- March 18, 2012"LOVE Davis Studio camps. We have sent our 8yo daughter to many Davis summer camps and vacation camps and each one is outstanding. The teachers and aids are all talented, patient and fun. My daughter loves Davis Studio."- jesso
- February 15, 2012"Probably the best summer day camps my son has attended over the years. He's been a summer camp participant for over three years now and has loved the Cartooning camp. The instructors really nurture the artist in all children, even those kids who might not consider themselves as art kids. Love the confidence my son has developed through cartooning."- maxmomvt
- August 18, 2011"My 6 year old daughter participated in the Fairy Tale Art camp this summer and LOVED it. She came home beaming every day, LOVED her instructor and created some wonderful work that she was really proud of. She took the Acrylics class when she was 5 and LOVED it as well. I'm a huge fan of Davis Studio. If your kids enjoys making art, you should definitely check it out."- Laura Cooper
- August 16, 2011"love the preschool art program. my daughter had a wonderful time every week. working with quality materials and creative projects. busy busy for the full hour. wish it was longer. Teresa is just wonderful with the children and delightful and thoughtful as a teacher. Her ideas are creative and have such variation."- eohmom
- September 15, 2010"My boys have participated in two classes & one Super Hero camp at Davis Studio. Theresa has such a gift with children. My boys quickly felt at ease in the classes. I was blown away by the paintings that my six year old created! I realized that this was probably the first time that my son had spent two full hours creating art! The Preschool Art class was also wonderful. Theresa has figured out how many different types of activities she should offer in a preschool class. The class was filled with many different creative mini projects. It was obvious she understands the attention span & general vibe of preschoolers. (And Mom got to create fun things too!) I can't say enough good things about Theresa & the classes that she offers at Davis Studio!"- claudia
- September 13, 2010"I think I had as much fun in this class as the little boy I nannied for! There were different projects each time we went, and we got to bring home our completed art work. They always do one big art project and let you take home a painting on canvas. The family I worked for still has her sons art hanging in her house. It was really very impressive!!"- Babies to Boomers
- April 15, 2010"Davis Studio is a great place to be. There are art camps and drama camps. I always love how the art turns out, I also love what ideas Teresa has for art and drama. I have taken many art and drama camps there. I think it is REALLY fun. I love Davis Studio!"- Kayalesser
- March 17, 2010"we LOVE davis studios! teresa is a patient, nurturing teacher. i have self portraits that my children painted in her acrylics class, that are framed and hanging on our family room walls...they are cherished! such a great experience for them and healthy way to identify their artistic talent in a warm environment. highly recommended!"- cbyager
- February 13, 2010"I agree - this is a wonderful place!"- vrzr
- July 7, 2009"My children have been going to the Davis Studio now for 4 years. This has truly been a wonderful experience. This year my daughters chose the Fashion Design Camp. They enjoyed this so much. The individuality and creativity that they are given to design and create fashion was wonderful. They even had a Runway show to show off their designs. I also find that Theresa Davis and her staff are just wonderful to work with and make the camp a very memorable experience for my children. Kim"- Kim Fields
- May 16, 2009"Teresa Davis is a really good role model for younger kids and her classes and camps are really fun and I know this from experience! Teresa knows exactly what you for paintings and to spice up your lines in show camps and if you have not done a camp or class from Teresa then you should definitely try one, they're really fun! Teresa is awesome! -Evelyn, age 10"- Evy123
- March 25, 2009"My 9 year old daughter participated in the Cinderella Theater camp over February break. What a creative, magical experience. Theresa and her staff were so supportive to all of the girls and boys throughout the week. And what they accomplished in those 5 days is truly miraculous. My daughter could not wait to go back each day. They painted, drew, sewed, acted, ate, laughed, sang, learned a ton about putting on a real performance, made new friends, and built up their confidence in performing arts. The studio has such a nurturing feel to it. i can't say enough about it. If I could give 6 stars I would."- jmin

- September 4, 2008"Where would we be without Teresa and Darla at Davis Studio? Teresa and Darla have given so much to my son to become the confident actor that he aspires to be. They allow him to explore his creativity in a safe and nurturing environment. He has also learned the many aspects needed to produce a play, from behind the scenes to the final curtain call. They welcome his imagination and encourage him to express himself. Most importantly he loves attending their theater camps. A camp worth experiencing!"- Kara Kitchen-Glodgett
- July 8, 2008"I just can't say enough about this fantastic camp. My daughter wasn't sure about leaving the house at all this summer, even the idea of a camp all week wasn't flying...until Fairy Camp! She had such a great time, enjoyed making new friends, and the staff was so nurturing, she greeted them with hugs by the second day. They spent time playing outside, which was a nice diversion from all of the creating they were doing indoors. Every day produced something my daughter was proud to show me, and the culmination of displaying all of her work, along with the beautiful environment they'd created, was really a fantastic ending to the week. I highly recommend this for your little girl. She made me believe in Fairies by the end!"- twincoastlove
- May 9, 2008"June 2012 My 13 year old son and 10 year old daughter both took the Graffiti & Street Art, Level 1 camp this summer. My son described it as 'awesome, unique and totally out of the ordinary'. The kids stared off camp by coming up with their own graffiti or street name which they then parlayed into a lot of their work. Stenciling was one of their favorite, as was spray chalk. They came home at the end of this 5 day class with 1...more"- missmagpie

They managed to pull off a whole show, complete with authentic costumes, a set, and a really involved script, that was both inclusive of all the actors, held together as a great story, and was quite funny. I'd sign up early, because these camps fill up quickly."- alisonjames
- March 25, 2008"If you have an artistic child for whom the typical crafty art class or camp is not enough, this is the place for you. Teresa's studio is a real live art studio where kids can explore their creativity to the max, and be respected as real live artists. My son, who at age 2 was drawing 20 foot chalk murals on the driveway, loves Teresa's classes beyond measure. If you want someone who can give your child great technical artistic skills and give flight to their creativity and self confidence - all while having a ton of fun - then look no further. Teresa Davis is a treasure."- jasper
- March 25, 2008"Look no further for a nurturing place for your budding artist. Kids have fun practicing lots of different art techniques and styles in a warm, engaging environment. My kids can't wait to go to their art classes each week and they proudly display all their artwork on our walls at home. This studio is a home run for sure!"- ksowers
