SATURDAY WORKSHOPS

We're starting a series of Saturday Workshops beginning in July. These will be "Done in One," extensive 3 hour art lessons/workshops where you learn tips and techniques in different mediums and finish a project that same day! Cost: $75 per person, all supplies included. We will be limiting all workshops to 3 - 6 people for better quality and hands on attention. Light snacks and beverages will also be provided. Call or stop in to sign up. Here are the workshops we're featuring for the month of July & August:
