If you need to cancel you may find an alternate student to take your place. All classes are 2 hours and includes use of our machines, equipment and supplies unless otherwise specified. Weekly classes meet same day and time each week unless noted. If you find a class that is not on the current schedule, please call or stop by and fill out a class request slip. We use our request slips to schedule future classes. |
