Absolutely wonderful. Ran and owned by sisters. Most of the art on display is for sale. If youre having an event or just want somewhere to go look at really amazing things that you can TOUCH and take beautiful photos look no further. Events are reasonably priced. They provide the tables and chairs. Their establishment is very clean and wonderfully decorated.

We had a 2pm tour today. Tracy gave us some coupons because she was running a little late today. She took us on a nice tour then let us have the place to ourselves.We had a blast in the balloon pit. My husband kept diving into it. I loved posing for all the pictures and the karaoke.Will definitely go back.

My daughter and I went today and after 2 hours, she was still not ready to leave. It was a wonderful part or our day together. We enjoyed the gallery as much as we did the interactive exhibits! Lovely place and the staff was accommodating and very sweet.

I got the opportunity to be apart of the grand opening, I had a wonderful time listening to the live musician play, meet local artists and a conasuir or two. Its an outrage this place was spammed with 1-star votes, I dont think its even legit its probably haters or competition. I thought it would be a great experience for especially kids and even more so if theyre kinetic learners or homeschoolers.Im going to invite my artist friends from the area and SWFL universities, ect... I know theyd love the art there, like I did.

Enjoyed our experience on opening night at the Looking Glass. They are really trying to give our area a face lift with some quality entertainment and allow local artisans the opportunity to showcase their artwork or handmade makings. Owners cater to their customers and make sure they have a meaningful experience at Looking Glass. We need more spaces like this in our community!

It would be nice if there was information on what the Looking Glass is or is not. I thought it was a neighborhood tavern until I saw that someone brought a child to this place.

It’s unfortunate and unfair that this business got a ton of fake 1 star reviews in one day based on a social media drama storm from people that never even went to the business, which is against google review rules by the way. I watched the drama unfold and hope the fake reviews don’t dissuade you from trying this place out and supporting local business!

Tracy is a very rude individual. The way she handles her business is very unprofessional. Everyone is entitled to have an opinion without being threatened with the police. Have a great day.

TIPS FOR YOUR VISIT:-If youre coming here to take cool instagram photos, please bring your own lighting set up. We came equipped with a canon DSLR camera and a 50mm prime lens and were unable to take any photos that werent super dark and grainy. The areas provide some interesting backdrops and creative lighting, but it is very, very dark.-Another tip for photos, try to bring some sort of wider angle lens, a lot of the rooms are quite intimate and we had some difficulty trying to take any sort of full body photo.-Make an appointment beforehand, we were unaware we needed to make a reservation and it came with some awkwardness.-Dont wear heels -- the employee made us wear medical style booties over our shoes so we didnt damage a room with a furry floor.My friends and I heard of this place from an Instagram photographer we follow. We were able to get some cool pictures and had a good enough time, but it was far too dark to get super high quality images. The owner (I assume she was the owner) took us on a pretty long tour of each small room and ended it by going way too into detail on each artist featured in the small gallery area. She kind of rubbed us the wrong way with some things, like how she over-explained some art terms (two of us are actually art majors in college and featured artists in gallery shows). Overall we had a good time, and if you bring your own lighting setup this would be a really cool place to take photos. The Krispie Kreme is also right down the street so once youre done you can go get some hot and ready donuts!

Disappointing experience. Unfriendly and unprofessional staff. Only giving two stars instead of one because the art is very nice.
