The WAS-H classroom is now open for select classes and workshops. The class schedule will indicate whether the courses are on-line or in-person. While the WAS-H office is open during regular WAS-H hours (Tuesday - Saturday 10 am - 3 pm), the on-site Gallery is not open.


Paint-Ins are a single day class, usually taught the second Saturday of the month. It's a great opportunity to learn a new technique or squeeze in a class with your busy schedule. Registration is required.
