I do not not consider them real schools.

I have taken inspiration from, Paint Your Style in Berlin:
https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/4235447795

Which is tagged with a leisure=ceramic_painting tag.

Similarly:
amenity=dancing_school is strongly discouraged in favor of
leisure=dancing,dance:teaching=yes

so maybe
leisure=painting
painting:teaching=yes


There is one existing leisure=painting:
https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/3677738107
which is https://www.paintingwithatwist.com/
And all those pictures of date nights where everyone have a glass of wine indicates 
to me that a leisure tag is correct.


Now that I look at taginfo, I see that there are 5 leisure=ceramic_painting of which 
I created 3, and one leisure=pottery_painting POI (Color Me Mine). They all look very 
similar and Color Me Mine has a lot of studios: https://www.colormemine.com/locations/

So for consistency, which one should it be: ceramic_painting or pottery_painting?
