Pack your international wine taste buds and come travel to Old World Europe with us! This course has a materials fee.

Program Mission: Welcome Aboard Spaceship Earth! As we travel through the Milky Way together, let’s explore the enigma, “Are we alone in the Universe?” This question has animated human curiosity since our earliest ancestors stared into the Cosmos. This highly interactive program intends to embrace this curiosity amidst the dispute surrounding the recent government release of UAP or UFO sightings and the disturbing mysteries involving the death and/or disappearance of 11 scientists! Have you ever seen what you believe was a UFO sighting? If yes, 17% of other Americans agree with you! During the course, we will explore three potential scenarios: 1-Extraterrestrial Civilizations or ETCs exist and are already here; 2-ETCs exist but we have not found legitimate evidence of their existence; 3-Earth is “rare”, we are alone in the universe. Astronomers estimate the observable universe contains perhaps as many as 1 septillion stars. Someone must be out there!

“To know and not do, is to not know.” – Stephen Covey
This session will dive deeply into one of the most uncomfortable issues: Money. We need it to manage our personal lives and to feel stable, have peace of mind, and control our anxiety about the future. Our level of satisfaction in our healthcare, professional life, personal life, and legacy is often dictated by the choices we make around money. But why do so many people make poor choices? Is it really not knowing…or is it not doing? With so many smart people claiming they know what the best decisions are, how can everyone be so different? We will explore the proven elements of behavioral finance and the psychology behind hyper-individualism and how it affects our money decisions and patterns. Join us as we openly discuss the behaviors around finances and how we can make better choices. This judgement-free session will help you to view money situations from a different angle and change how you process financial information. -

I am excited to introduce this new class utilizing botanicals. Using live, pressed dry, and even artificial flowers, we will create several different types of artistic results. We will experiment with light-sensitive mono printing. We will print directly from plant material. We will hammer flowers and greens and transfer their pigments to cards. We will place and glue pressed flowers creating framed art or cards. As I write this class description, I am still discovering all that we might be able to do with flowers to create new forms of art. I know one thing; this will be a really fun class! Sign up quickly before seats run out! This course has a materials fee. Note: This course begins at 10:00am.
