SUMMER CLASS 2024

We offer classes in the summer for anyone interested in learning!  While the classes are in the same location, they follow a different structure than our regular workshops.  These classes are during the week and will go much more in depth on specific topics.  They range in length but usually only last an hour to two hours long depending on the topic, however, all of the classes are progressive and build on the previous classes.  Each class is usually between 3 and 4 sessions.  Not only are these classes extremely fun and educational, but you always get to leave with more knowledge than you came in with!

The classes are presented by volunteer costumers and we may well be updating and adding more classes for those interested, so remember to check our website regularly.
