Linda Corirossi's Embellishment Classes Have Resumed
It's time to get back into the swing of things!!
We are learning to live with masks and social distancing. We are careful, but we are venturing out. It's time to come to Linda's embellishment class again! Classes will have resumed their regular weekly schedule: 9:30 am Mondays and 1:00 pm Wednesdays.
To ensure everyone's safety Linda has asked that, for now, we limit enrollment to 6 students per session.
