JOIN US FOR ART CLASSES!
If you ever wanted to learn an art, or expand your skills, the Paradise is the place to do it.
Scholarships to pay for classes are available for qualifying families through Three Rivers Community Action. Call for more information. REGISTRATION DEADLINE FOR ALL CLASSES one week prior to class start, so register today! (Classes may be canceled if minimum participation is not met.)

ACRYLIC PAINTING CLASSES FOR ADULTS
If you have always wanted to try painting or are experienced, these classes are for you. All ability levels are welcome as we develop your painting skills. The classes will begin with 1 hour of instruction followed by 1 hour of guided lab instruction. Students are expected to provide their own materials or they may be purchased for a small fee. Both classes will continue indefinitely at the discretion of the students and instructor. Instructor: Gary Hoganson Fee: $10/session members ($15/session non-members)
Date: Wednesdays: 1:00 - 3:00 pm.
ATTENTION POTTERS!
The potters at the Paradise want to encourage people to participate in the fun we have in the pottery studio. We welcome back former clay students and encourage those who are curious about clay! Tom Willis and Dianne Lockerby will each be offering special introductory classes. For these classes the first week will be a FREE session. Come try the class, if you like it, pay for the class and return for 3 additional classes to finish the piece started and make more. If you find that clay “may not your thing” your clay goes back in the clay bucket and we hope you will try another art experience at PCA in the future. (A limited number of students per class - waiting lists for the next class session will be available – so call and get the dates and times.
HERE’S ANOTHER DEAL! Members of PCA benefit from reduced class fees.
1) Support PCA by buying your own membership (many benefits beyond reduced class fees).
2) Have you taken a previous PCA/FAC clay class and no longer have a PCA membership? Then bring a signed piece that you have made in a previous PCA/FAC class when you register and you can register with a member fee.
3) Members – have a non-member friend who would like to take class? Register together and your friend will benefit from your membership by registering with the member fee.
OPEN POTTERY STUDIO: Studio Time is Back! This is a benefit for PCA members who have taken previous clay classes. It is a time where experienced members join together and work without a teacher. We share a social time and clay problems are solved by sharing of knowledge – a time of ‘give and take’. Participants are required to purchase clay from PCA so that all glazing/firing fees are covered. This will be a FREE studio time during March. We will meet Wednesdays at 10:00 am and continue as interest warrants.
