saturdays are special here!

freezing cold
Brrr....is it just me or were you also hoping that we wouldn't see freezing temperatures and snow this winter?  

Count down to Spring?  64 days!  That's a little over 2 months!  Days until Easter?  84 (Refuse/re-seen opens the weekend 'after' Easter.

For now?  Well, how about we find some ways to count down to Spring together. 
 
Take a closer look at our Saturday Sampler and the Saturday Studio opportunities. No need to settle for the winter blues.  Heating bills got you down?  Try knitting or crocheting or weaving something to warm you up.

What's a Saturday Sampler?   It's a taste of a skill that either confirms that what you learned just isn't for you OR....perhaps the taste that makes you want to learn even more.

What's a Saturday Studio?  This is a multi-week or multi-day or maybe ALL day class that is going to give you an indepth experience with a skill or a media. 
 
Here's the next 6 planned Samplers and Studios.  See the complete schedule here:  Saturday Offerings Winter 2012  (Check back often for updates)
