Late-August Classes Bloom!

I'm not ready to end summer as yet! I love the relaxed feeling that July and August brings (although I would be happy to give up the humidity) and the long, light-filled evenings.

Enamelling enthusiasts will love Christine Woollacott's newest class - a fine silver and enamelled ring! We also have several encore classes with Pamela Kearns, Angela Peace, Anne Marie Desaulniers and Kelly Garland. And, of course, we have our open sessions and studios that you can work on your projects with help and guidance from experts.

By the way, mark your calendar now for our free Back to Class event! On Saturday, September 10, you can meet our instructors and see for yourself the beautiful class projects scheduled for this Fall. We also welcome our newest instructor Ann Shewan. Details are on-line now in the September calendar.
