This semester we offer a new line of Girls’ Night Out classes designed to give you the lift of a creative endeavor in excellent company. Invite friends to attend these make-and-take projects with you. Each gets a 10% discount when four or more register together!
This semester we also offer old favorites like beadwork, watercolor and pastels, pottery and basket-making. And there are artist-level classes in Stained Glass Window Repair and Adobe Lightroom.*
