Spring Classes begin Monday March 15th 2010

Our classes are designed to provide age appropriate activities in a fun environment. In addition to our series of weekly classes with a 10 week duration, we also offer workshops which are usually on a morning or afternoon, so that older children can participate in an activity that can't readily be covered in a shorter weekly session. Our current programs are as follows:
