From the reviews
Best staff, teachers, classes! My kids are 6 and 9 and both enjoy a variety of classes here.
It's refreshing to come here. I've attended the Clay Symposium numerous times (the last three times it has been held). They have top quality presenters and the galleries are quite worth while. I love these symposiums! I feel like I truly get to know each of the presenters.....
Thr Arts Centfer has something interesting going on all the time for all ages - music, theater, multiple classes in drawing, printmaking, digital art, painting and more. The atmosphere is friendly, helpful, and lively. Sometimes it is very exciting to be there.
The arts center has something for everyone, just about every day of the week. From classes on just about anything, to rotating exhibitions, the LAC is truly a gem of Lawrence. Get tickets for a show, you don't want to miss the performers here either!
Your first ballet class at Lawrence Arts Center
Nervous about walking into your first class? Almost everyone is — and a good studio expects beginners, whether your dancer is five or you're returning at fifty. Here's what to know. What to wear: comfortable clothes you can move in, with socks or bare feet; a leotard and tights are nice if you have them, but not required, and pointe shoes are years down the road — never day one. What to expect: class usually starts at the barre with slow, simple movements to warm up, then moves to the center — follow along, copy the teacher, and don't worry about getting it "right" the first time. Arrive early: come 10–15 minutes ahead to change, find a spot, and let the teacher know it's a first class so they can keep an eye out. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
