Highlights of our history, growth and key milestones.
The Date Night Spark
On January 12, 2024, the vision for My Creation Haven was born out of a simple moment of frustration and love. While enjoying a paint-your-own pottery date night, Ronald Carmenate expressed his frustration with having to drive so far from home for a quality experience. His wife, Christy Carmenate, responded with the challenge that would change everything: 'We should build a paint-your-own pottery in Houston, MS.' That single sentence ignited a mission to create a local sanctuary for imagination, STEM learning, and wholesome recreation.
