I can’t say enough good things about Vima art gallery! My son took art classes here and absolutely loved it—Mona is encouraging, patient, and really brought out his creativity. It was a joy to see how proud he was of his work each week. I’ve also attended several group paint and sip classes, and they were fantastic every time. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, and Mona does a great job guiding everyone while still letting your creativity shine. It’s the perfect place for a fun night out with friends or a unique group activity. Highly recommend for both kids’ classes and adult events—you’ll leave inspired and smiling! Niloufar Reisian2025-05-06Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Best art class ever! We feel incredibly lucky to have found this art class for our son. From the very first session, it was clear that this was not just another typical kids’ art program. The instructor brings a rare combination of warmth, talent, and dedication to her teaching. She takes the time to get to know each child and creates a space where they feel seen, supported, and inspired. What sets this class apart is not just the quality of the artwork the kids produce, but the way the teacher nurtures their creativity and confidence. She introduces thoughtful projects that challenge the children in fun and imaginative ways, all while maintaining a calm, patient, and encouraging atmosphere. Our son has developed a deeper love for art and always comes home excited to share what he created and learned. This program has exceeded all of our expectations, and I would enthusiastically recommend it to any family looking for a meaningful and enriching art experience for their child.

Everyone left with a finished painting and good energy. Highly recommend for team events. Reza Javaheri2025-05-03Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My child has absolutely loved attending Mona’s art classes and camps. She has a natural gift for working with kids—always patient, encouraging, and full of creative energy. With her extensive background in art, she not only teaches techniques but also creates a fun, inspiring environment where children feel free to explore and express their creativity.
