Rescheduling:

  • You may reschedule your class on another offered date for that course up to 2 business days in advance.

We plan for the number of students in advance, making it difficult for us to coordinate within this timeframe for last minute cancellations or rescheduling.

  • Bookbinding: Make a Fine Journal/Sketchbook

    class was cancelled by instructor, but I’ll try again another day.
  • Bookbinding: Make a Fine Journal/Sketchbook

    What a great way to disconnect and do something creative for a few hours! I was new to bookbinding, but the class is structured in a way that makes it easy to follow along. Arjun and Rose were great, the space is very warm and approachable, and the sparkling water and peanut M&Ms were a huge plus too! Definitely recommend...
