UPDATE ON MUSEUM CLASS FOR CHILDREN WHO ARE BLIND AND VISION IMPAIRED Exploring My Artistic Self is going to be offered over the course of 2 Saturdays (July 20 and 27) from 10am-4pm instead of June 17-21 from 9am-12pm. The enrollment was too low to offer the class as it was, however the wish is that the class still be offered. An individual is not required to sign up for both classes but is highly encouraged since they cover 2 separate mediums. Mosaics in the Making is still to be offered June 17-21 from 1-4pm and enrollment is still open.
