SPOTLIGHT ON

DECEMBER CLASSES


Dear Friends,


Welcome to our SPOTLIGHT ON DECEMBER CLASSES & WORKSHOPS!


As we move into the holiday season, it's the perfect time to embrace your creativity. Take a class with a friend or family member, and spend quality time learning new skills together! Interested in making your own gifts this season? Take a holiday workshop and leave with handmade gifts for loved ones!


Winter classes & workshops include a Parent/Child Wreath Decorating Workshop and a STEAMtastic Winter Wonderland Workshop. View a full list of holiday season classes on our Light Up the Holidays page under "Holiday Classes."
