The Ankeny Art Center is a fantastic and phenomenal place with a beautiful atmosphere. It offers fantastic art, including a Monet, and is a free destination worth visiting. The center provides pottery and ceramics classes with incredibly knowledgeable and super nice teachers. It has a great community and warm atmosphere for potters to collaborate, with extremely affordable studio fees. It is also a very cute place where kids can post their work. The center is highly recommended.
I've taken some classes and attend pottery studio here. All the staff is super friendly, the facilities are nice for studio, other members are friendly as well. They art is also rotated out regularly and they host several events. Highly recommend, and their classes and studio fees are very reasonably priced!
I started pottery classes at the AAC in 2018 and have never left! The community of potters they have developed there is great and I love being a part of it. I can’t recommend the classes enough. If you’ve been wanting to try something out, go for it!
Listen, I read a reddit one time that said Iowa doesn't do tourism.... Well, this alone is worth the tourism. This place was fantastic. The art, the atmosphere..... The Monet..... I cannot recommend this place enough. Go take a vacation like we did just to visit the art center. It's free, it's phenomenal, it's art ... It's beautiful.
