We can even set up a special night for just you and your loved ones!

Here's the class menu for Winter Session:

Jewelry-Making w/Pam Hall (Tues, 1 1/2 hrs): This class is so popular we had to add additional ones late this fall! Walk in, bang on some copper and precious stones, then walk out with a pair of fabulous earrings and a bracelet!

Wheel-Throwing Pottery w/Dwight Laughlin (Mon or Tues, 2 hrs): Learn how to throw, trim, bake, and glaze your very own plates, pots, vases, and you-name-it.

Hand-Build Clay Sculpture For Families w/Doug Stevenson (Mon, 1 hr):
This is our newest class. In it your family will learn how to sculpt masterpieces you can fire up and take home to enjoy for years to come. Refer your neighbor's family and if they sign up, you'll get a discount!

Traditional AND Latin Ballroom Dance Survey Class w/Emily Masters (Mon or Wed, 1 hr): Learn to Cha Cha, Salsa, Meringue, Tango, Waltz AND Foxtrot in only 6 weeks! Yes, in response to our students we've revamped the classes to include EVERYTHING! No partner needed.

Kidz Klay w/Kathy Townsend (Thur, 1 hr): Your child will be encouraged to let his/her creative light burn brightly. And have fun playing in a lot of clay, of course!

Acrylic Painting For Adults w/Cindy Wunsch (Thur, 2 hrs): Cindy is an absolute 3-D magician with paints, canvas, brushes, collage, and imagination! And she'll teach you to be the same. You've NEVER had a painting class quite like this one… and like everyone else, you'll be hooked! Register early... this one tends to fill up really quickly.

Acrylic Painting For Families w/Marjie Parsons (Wed, 1 hr): The kids just LOVE Marjie! And so do the parents! She can teach you how to focus your wildest dreams onto a canvas! Refer another family and if they sign up, you'll get a discount!
