On Tuesday we held our last community education workshop for the semester. Students learned how to transform simple paper strips into a unique floral design by rolling, shaping, and gluing each piece together. Thank you Myrle Waller for sharing your love of a centuries-old art form with us!

Thank you Durelle Brown for leading a creative and energetic 2-part workshop where students learned how to turn old books into one-of-a-kind journals! So many different ideas and types of journal-making supplies were shared that it was almost overwhelming. Students left with their repurposed books plus many, many ideas for filling them too!

Our last workshop of the semester is the Art of Paper Quilling, which will be next Tuesday, 5/12 and we have 3 spots left! Call us to grab one! 409-933-8461

Our students just returned from nine unforgettable days in Athens & the Greek Islands! They explored history at the Acropolis and Parthenon, soaked in breathtaking views at the Temple of Apollo, and experienced the beauty of Mykonos and Santorini—including a visit to a local winery. From sandy beaches to cruising between islands on scenic ferry rides, every moment was filled with adventure, culture, and memories that will last a lifetime.

Interested in joining in on our upcoming adventures? Join our next Extended Travel Presentation to learn more! It will be Tuesday, 5/12 (rescheduled date from 5/5) at 1pm at the Mainland City Centre. Give us a call for more info 409-933-8461 ✈️
