    I loved the laid-back vibe of this class. The teacher gives just enough direction and leaves us free to explore and experiment with the different materials and techniques available, but is always there to help. Really fun to do with a friend or SO.

    Great class! Class structure and progression built up both curiosity to experiment as well as confidence to create. Class setting is calm, organized and fun! A few people came alone and others as couples / friends. Came home with pieces that I'm proud of, as well as the inspiration to continue on my own. Couldn't have asked for better!
