The Artsy Backyard - Los Angeles, California

We hired The Artsy Backyard for our team's holiday party and everyone had a wonderful time! Ronit and her husband were super sweet and encouraging, arrived on time, and brought all of the supplies needed for the Paint & Pot activity. Everyone enjoyed flexing their creativity together. We decided to do two pots each - one to keep and one to give as a gift. I highly recommend having The Artsy Backyard provide a unique activity for any event.

I participated in an event at The Artsy Backyard over the weekend and it was so amazing! We did a flower arranging lesson taught by a local florist (who is also Ronit’s daughter!) and then made paintings of our arrangements.

Ronit is super sweet and was there to welcome us and assist throughout the class- she also laid out snacks for everyone which was very thoughtful since it was a 3 hour event.

Keenan was such a great teacher - she was kind and funny, and demonstrated everything while also walking around to help us.

Everyone at the event was chatting and it was just all all-around very wholesome and fun time! I’d love to come back again soon - thank you!

If only I knew about this place sooner. I was looking for a place to hold my daughter's birthday and somehow I stumbled upon The Artsy Backyard. It was a little over 2 weeks away from the birthday so I was not sure Ronit (the owner) could help. To my surprise she said not a problem and we booked my daughter's birthday on a Saturday afternoon. What I love most was Ronit's patience with the children (Ages 4 - 6). The kids all made picture frames and then chose a ceramic piece to paint, while the parents stood around chatting or helping their kid(s) paint their creation. Ronit offers a large variety of things the kids can do but I thought taking on a picture frame would not end up in the trash. At the end of the day, this place was great for celebrating a birthday. Ronit has aprons and individual stations for each kid to work. She also offers you gift bags that aren't your typical candy and plastic.

We had our company holiday party here and it was a HUGE hit! With the helpful instruction of the The Artsy Backyard team, even the least artistic of us were able to create something beautiful. My CEO's feedback was "I thought this could be fun, but I didn't realize just how much fun it would be!". Ronit was amazing and I've already recommended The Artsy Backyard to friends looking for a new way to host an event.

We had a wonderful corporate holiday party at the Artsy Backyard! Ronit & Ellie were extremely attentive and our entire team raved about how we need to come back. We definitely will be in the new year!

We had a FABULOUS time at The Artsy Backyard! We hosted a company party at this location with 18 people (but they can accommodate up to 30), and it was a great location.

Reaching out: Ronit is who you will chat with, and she was great at communicating via phone and email. She is great with letting you know what to expect, what you can/cannot bring and the price was not bad.

Location: Mainly street parking that is pay to park, BUT there are a few shopping centers near by that didn't mind missing a few spots. If you go on the weekend, its free parking after a certain time.

Building: Super cute brick interior for those Instagram shots. There is a bathroom, and room to set up tables for food, drinks, and what ever else you will need.

The Class: We were assigned two teachers that were kind, courteous and patient as we were all a little nervous to put paint to canvas.

I 100% suggest that you book with Ronit and her team for your team event get together. I know they also host classes, and many other events that we will definitely be looking into!

Thank you for everything you did for our team!
Best Wishes,
The Jovie Sitter Team of Sherman Oaks!

We had our daughter's fifth birthday here. It was a great success. Ronit is amazing to work with and her teaching background shines through. The communication was easy , the space was organized and inviting, and everyone including the parents had a great time. If your kid is into art, I would 10 out of 10 recommend the Artsy Backyard for a birthday party venue!

Our daughter has taken art classes and has attended The Artsy Backyard camps over the past several years. She has been taught by the owner as well as her staff. It's a quaint study on La Brea. The environment is absolutely lovely and supportive. Our daughter has become familiar with art by some of the masters as well as more contemporary artists. She has worked in different mediums and always comes home with exciting pieces for us to hang up. Most importantly, she thoroughly enjoys her time at the studio and with the teachers (who seem incredibly knowledgeable). Plus, she has made very nice friends during each class, which always makes a parent happy! We highly recommend The Artsy Backyard.
