Whats glass art beer...Is there free food & drink on Pensacon Halloweenie...Lyle Alzado.

Awsome glass blowing class great instructor and very inexpensive for what you go home with.

They give out mentorship scholarships to highschools

Overpriced for the area they are located, but they only cater to the rich anyway. Used to have a Makerspace there but I heard they kicked them out for no reason. Too bad but seems typical of this area.

We took a weekend class to blow our own Christmas ornament. It was a lot of fun and reasonably priced. Keith walked us through the whole process and answered any questions we had. The facility is well kept and everyone there was friendly.

Great people. Beautiful well priced art. Relaxed, welcoming and friendly.

Great place to see art, glass blowing, pottery..ECT. Is a little price for admission during events but there proceeds go to the Art Center to train new artist, so well worth it

Hot studio (glass), wheel pottery studio, hand build ceramic studio, painting gallery for use by local members. Large facilities. Nice helpful people with plans to expand.

This was fantastic but fair warning, to get a decent size glass pumpkin we paid in the 55.00 per pumpkin range. There were no pumpkins costing 25.00 as advertised.With that said, they were simply beautiful! I bought for others who could not go so I bought 5 of them. 3 were for other people .

Went for my 1st graders field trip, the gentlemen working the glass blowing area were very informative and seem to love what they do which was nice. My only thing from giving it a 5 is I would have liked to have seen and done something a little more hands on and engaging. Granted it was fun to do the clay making class, suggestion would be to be able to do the kiln or what not there so that theres less of a c.f. hence of messing up or ruining the projects, especially when there are a bunch of first graders leading the pack. Other than that, quite enjoyed the visit

Always a great time to be had at whichever event you choose to attend. This time was Hot Glass Cold Beer and the guest glass artist was amazing.

Ive been enjoying the pottery classes! Wonderful atmosphere for learning and creating!

Really cool place for learning and Art for all ages. From pottery to glass blowing there is many classes you can take to further your artistic side. Nothing but wonderful people that love to help you find your passion that you may not know of yet. They also have fun events like Hot Glass Cold Brew where you can watch glass blowing demos and grab a bite and some beer too.

Awesome place. I wish there was one closer to where I live. Amazing art and classes offered

Hot glass and cold brews is a great time. This is a really fun place with some beautiful art. Its great that Pensacola has this!

Our company paid for a glass blowing workshop where each person got one on one experience making their own Christmas ornament. So much fun!

Took ceramics on the wheel classes with Pearl on Thursday nights. She is a phenomenal teacher. Very patient and knowledgeable. Loves to share her expertise. Open studio times offer many opportunities to practice throwing skills. I’m sad to have left the area.

Pumpkin patch— hot glass cold brew. Always a winner and a fabulous time

It Takes Two workshop is the BEST for hands on personal instruction - & alot of fun! Theresa is a terrific instructor. Highly recommend!

Had a blast at Hot Glass Cold Brew and I look forward to attending some upcoming classes. Such a unique venue with a great cause.

It was definitely a fun night for this event. Watching the artists in action was amazing.

This was a great place to too get some glass blown pumpkins. Highly recommend.

This place is awesome. Its a great alternative to formal classes if you want to learn art at leisure. I purchase my clay from here and its top quality each time.

Pensacolas home for arts and crafts. Located less than a mile from downtown and Palafox st. First City is a public access art center featuring glassblowing, ceramics, sculpture, photography, paintings, sewing, jewelery making and so much more. If you are a creative person or just need to be around more art and friendly people, make it a point to stop by and see the facility.

Love this facility, we are very fortunate to have such a wonderful art center

Grandson and friend enjoying weekly Kids Camp

Hallelujah! fer not allowing dogs. completely correct decision in this fine pristine art space. dogs are unclean animals.

What an awesome place! Im so excited Pensacola has an art center! I have been taking pottery on the wheel for months and plan to continue

Some of the best artist in the city

Highly recommend. Stop by and check out the art, chat up some artists, take a class, send your kids for art camp, spend an evening at one if their excellent events... you cant go wrong. This place is a wonderful asset to Pensacola.

I was a walk-in during a mixed media class. The staff was nice & explained where to go, the instructor welcomed me to the class, and I had a lot of fun & made a cool collage. Im excited to try some other classes

Went with my daughter school we watched glass blowing and made a lil bowl we had a great time and learned alot about glass blowing the guy giving the demonstration was awesome and answered questions for the kids could even ask. Would do it again with the family.

My favorite place in pensacola! Support local

I can now say been there done that. Line starts forming around 7:30 am, Entry isnt until 10:00. Pumpkins are very pretty but are beyond my budget. Too hot, too crowed, too expensive. But they really do the business, people were buying by the box fulls. Gifts?Resale? Dont know. Glad I went thought.

Loved watching the staff make glass art products. Bathrooms were clean. Kinda hard to find the building n where to park.

Came for my kids school trip. Also have an excellent summer camp.

Hot Glass Cold Brew is a fantastic gathering of talented artists that introduces people to glass blowing and ceramics

Energetic vibe! Great place to find great local art!

I love everything about this place! So many classes to take and events. Perfect for all ages and skill sets.

I look forward to the pumpkin festival every year. Looking for that perfect shape and color are always exciting. Worth the experience.

Friendly staff. Great events!Cant wait for Hot Glass Cold Brew to start again!

I was here as a volunteer. The more I learned about the venue, the more I was convinced it is a manifestation of gentrification. If you want to meet local artists and do not care that the very neighborhood it resides in cannot afford to go to it, then you too will enjoy the pretense of FCAC.

Went for the glas and ceramic pumkin sale. Wow, could not believe the amount of pumkins they had there. Also the quality of the pumpkins was outstanding. They all where so beautiful. It made it hard to choose. The workers where all so nice and helpful. Myself and my son will definitely be going back next year.

Had a fun group work event here. Super fun!

Great place to learn pottery and glass.

Aplace to learn and observe art. Very unique!

I would suggest doing the blown glass. It was a great experience for me and my friends.

Frequently go here with my reading group. Its fun! Take a class here for art, its worth it and something fun to do with your family.

Place is a creative nest. My favorite event of theirs is the hot glass cold brew. Glass bloweing, pottery, painting, whatever you want

Such an awesome and creative place. Meredith or Lauren can set up an appointment for a glass blowing session where Jacob Moody can assist you in creating a piece of blown glass art. It is an amazing experience!

Very good demonstration on glass blowing and many other topics.

Hot Glass Cold Brew is such a cool event! There are tons of cool art classes and activities for kids and adults.

Great place to see experience and make art!

Very much fun! Great Handblown glasses and good homemade brew Beer and food is delicious as always.Nice Vendors with beautiful creations...check it out!

One of my favorite places on earth!

Attended a clay class and learned to make several things. Have taken glass blowing here also. Teachers are knowledgeable, friendly and helpful!

Fun place to watch master glass blowers make one of a kind glass art. Beautiful paintings for sale.

I came with friends to support her interested in art. It was shorter than I expected it to have been. I did love the blown glass section while touring the facility.

A must on your list of art stops, excellent work by seasoned artists.

I really had a great time. Fun, relaxing and easy.

Wonderful place to buy beautiful art, especially the glass pumpkins from the annual Pumpkin Patch event.

Its comfortable relaxed the people are kind and helpful very unlike the Armory in Palm Beach...

Hot Glass Cold Brew ... Good party

Had a wonderful time at the hot glass cold brew event!

Ive been to some really cool events here. What a great space!

Took glass blowing class. Nice instructor

They always have excellent events all year. I love this place.

You can become a member here to receive discounts on their art classes, or you can just join a class every now and then. The instructors are excellent, and its a lot of fun.

Hot glass cold brew was fun, ran out of brew pretty early though. Feel like those lines couldve been consolidated.

Excellent informative front desk person that was knowledgeable and helpful.

Such a variety of arts. Glass blowing, belly dance.

Come learn how to make amazing things at First City Art Center

Great place to see and make art!

So I have been to the hot glass cold brew event plenty of times. I havent been to this event in almost 1 year. In the past, this event was amazing... You would pay $20 to $25 (thought it was $20) to get in, pick out of a huge variety of glasses, have all the beer you want, eat amazing food (last time I went it was pulled pork tacos), listen to music, and watch the glass blowing. Unfortunately, I think last night will be the last time that I go. It was a joke... The worst part about it was that I felt like the lines were worse than Disney World at Christmas time. So here is how it went... I walk in and stand in line to pay and get some kind of hipster punch card, I stand in another line to pick out my glass that I want to use for my beer (there were literally about 12 glasses to choose from which was a complete joke), I fall into a ridiculous pot hole in the glass line before I even begin to think about drinking, I get into another line to get my beer (this is when I notice that my punch card only allows 2 beers), when i get to the line they ask for my wrist band (which no one told me about), I stand in another line to show my ID and acquire my wrist band, I get back into the beer line and wait 30 min for my beer, and I get into another line to pick up my 1 inch slice of pizza where another hipster attacked my beer with her organic himp scarf (only one punch for this so dont come here hungry unless your a cracker and salad eating carb counter). By this time I really need another drink, so I get back into the beer line and wait another 20 minutes to find out that they ran out of beer at 7:30pm when there was only 4 more people in front of me in line. Assuming that they are going to probably go pick up some Michelob Ultra or Zima and jolly ranchers, my girlfriend and I have a short conversation about going to find something to eat and find a full size adult beer (instead of this frat girl sex on the beach shot glass size beer). We decided that maybe it would be worth it to stay... So, we wait another 30 minutes as we watch a guy dressed up as a frog on LSD dance around to the weird music, watch a guy practice his vaping skills in 20 MPH wind, and observe the hipsters create an additional beer line so that they didnt have to wait as long when the beer did arrive. I have to say that I try to make the best out of every situation, but this was a bit unpleasant. Please fire the anal hipster, and find someone that can chill out and create a pleasant atmosphere. Remember...

Went for a one on one pottery wheel class, very much enjoyed! Got to make 2 pieces for the price

Loved everything about them!!! I want to learn everything!!! The fundraiser was INCREDIBLE!!!
