Art Classes
We want to offer an exciting lineup of classes just for you. Please let us know what you want to learn!
Have you ever wanted to learn the basic stitches for Crochet or Knitting?
Local artist Leslie Friedman teaches 2-hour small 4 people max classes on both topics. She recommends picking either crochet or knitting and sticking with that one technique until you’ve mastered it, as it does take practice. Once you’ve mastered the chain and single crochet techniques, you are invited to sign up for the next level Crochet Dishcloth class. In each class, Leslie will provide you with either a crochet hook or knitting needles and a small skein of yarn for you to take with you.
​
