Fall Art Classes

Where has the summer gone?  The lazy days of summer have flown by way too soon, I'm just not ready to give up summer.  However, I do love fall and I love teaching.  I will be teaching some great classes at the Buchanan Art Center and at Water Street Glassworks this fall.  Be sure to check out the classes below and call to sign up and  reserve your spot.  These would make some great Christmas gifts for that special person on your list!!!  If you have any questions about the classes, email me: magdalenamoon@hotmail.com
