I have taken several courses at the center in drawing and ceramics and I am hooked on the place - and I am not alone! The center is more than just a place to take a course - it really is a "community" of artistic inspiration. The teachers are knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. But, interestingly many of the students take the courses many times; particularly for ceramics. As a kind of community, not only do you have great teachers but the students help and inspire each other. There is also generous open studios for students. I am hooked on ceramics and will continue to courses at the center. And the price is right!!
