POTTERY

Beginners will learn basic wheel skills: centering, opening, pulling, shaping, trimming and finishing, as well as glazing. As a beginner, you will be making variations on the basic cylinder, such as mugs, vases, and bowls. We suggest taking at least 4 sessions before moving up to an intermediate/ advanced wheel throwing class. Your instructor will help you assess your skill level. Before registering for an intermediate class, you need to master the basic throwing skills.

SUZUKI VIOLIN, VIOLIN, CELLO, AND GUITAR

(ages3- adult)
This approach to learn the violin begins with the "mother-tongue" idea: listen, watch, and do. Children's abilities are cultivated by listening to beautiful music. Through constant repetition of pieces, old skills are strengthened and new ones gained. There will be individual lessons as well as class lessons designed specifically to fulfill each pupil's need.
Traditional instruction is available for junior high, high school and adult students. Enrollment is for the school semester (16weeks). Summer lessons are also offered.
