My family had an absolute blast doing a painting party at Netra Art Studio/Canvas and Cafe! We couldn’t have found a better activity or a better arrangement to host a family birthday party for my sister’s 50th. (There were nine of us, spanning three generations). They kindly provided snacks and drinks, and we were able to supplement with our own charcuterie board, cupcakes and flowers for my sister’s birthday.Deepa was very responsive, helpful and accommodating when it came to planning and scheduling, since we had a lot of logistics to figure out. It was also short notice, so we were lucky to find her, and very fortunate that she had an opening for us! And, different than other painting parties I’ve been to, we were able to choose what we painted, and what we painted on!Our extremely talented and wonderful instructor, Matt, was a fabulous painting guide and so patient with us! He gave us assistance whenever needed, and allowed extra time to finish since some of us were faster than others. We also ended up spending far more time socializing than I expected; it was just such a wonderful environment to hang out in! My family is a casual bunch, ranging in age from 12 to 81, with varying artistic abilities and painting speeds, and Matt was a perfect fit for us. He even helped my nephew with an architecture project he was working on, which we were so appreciative of. We also very much enjoyed his sweet little pup. :)The painting party was such a rich and joyful experience that every one of my family members thoroughly enjoyed! I highly recommend Deepa and her studio. We will definitely be back!

I attended a wine and painting party here yesterday and had a blast. Deepta and her assistant Edwin provided some food, wine, and great instruction as we painted. Thanks for a wonderful time!

My 6.5-year-old daughter just started learning drawing and painting from Deepa this month and it has been an amazing experience already. Deepa is so loving and patient with both little kids and teenagers. I am so impressed by the space Deepa has created, full of warmth and love. My daughter loves her art classes and looks forward to going to them every week. Can’t wait to see my daughter become a little painter under Deepa’s guidance. Deepa is very flexible and accommodating and takes personal interest in every child’s growth. I feel so lucky to have found Deepa and Netra Arts !

We booked Canvas and Cafe for a corporate team building event. Attendees from our company are all art beginners, but everyone had a blast and the paintings turned out great! The food, drinks and atmosphere were nice. And Deepa and team were very supportive. Their homemade scones were delicious! I highly recommend Canvas and Cafe - I would love to come back again!Services: Custom painting

Netra center for arts and culture indeed deserves more than 5 stars. I am pleased to know Ms Deepa Menon Ma'am and learn bharatnatyam from her.She is an amazing artist, with sound knowledge of Various classical dance forms. She is friendly, fun loving, energetic, professional and disciplined.She has her own TV show "Artist Today" air every Saturday at 12pm on KTSF26 channel. Which is must watch!I got lucky to see her live performance recently and I don't have enough words to describe how amazing it was.As a beginner I had zero knowledge of classical dance. But she made sure that I should get right understanding about posture and steps. Which is more important to get correct basics of any dance form.I Recommend this center to everyone!
