In addition to classes taught by Pauline Warg, guest artists will teach a variety classes.

Our hours are changed with the liquidation of the tool and supply store.  WE are open only during the hours of classes.  This is only for the classes as we do not have tools and supplies on sale on hand.  We sell tools and supplies as are pertinent to our classes to our students and we take special orders.
As of April 1, 2017, the teaching studio will only be open during classes ( see "classes"), by appointment or chance.  Stay tuned for new methods of registering for classes this SPRING.

You may  know and realize that Gary and I are not at the studio daily.  Having you come to the studio or call can be challenging.  This process will eliminate the frustration of getting a busy tone!! It has worked well the past two sessions.

Here goes:
Registration will be ONLINE through e-mail.  All e-mails are time and date stamped. So the first come, first served will be a no brainer. Nothing before 8:00AM,  Wednesday, June 2018 will be in the queue.
REGISTRATION HAS NOT BEGUN until 6/20/18.
Sending an e-mail before then will not facilitate your registration.   Most establishments now do registration online and I understand why.
There will be questions to be filled in on the e-mail containing the schedule.  When you sign up for a class, fill out the necessary questions & I will send a PAY PAL invoice for the deposit.  This is a safe and secure way to send us your $50.00 OR you can pay in full.  The invoices will be sent to persons in the order that I receive the e-mails (date & time). Don't panic if you try after 8AM. YOU NEVER know there may still be openings. REALLY!!!
IF you send in the registration and prefer to pay by check, if you are in the time and date queue, I will notify you and you can then send a check.  If we do not receive the check in 5 days, the next person in line will be notified.
If you wish to sign up for more than one class,  I will send the invoice reflecting that amount due. If you wish to pay in full right off the bat, I will send you an invoice for the total. You can let me know in your initial e-mail.
Thank you all so much!  Keep your fingers crossed that all runs smooth!!!  It did for the Fall & Winter, and I think it was a relief in general.
