December 2011 Workshops

Here's my list of classes that I'll be teaching for December 2011. I may add to this list. I'm ALWAYS looking for new teaching venues so if you know of any that may be interested, I'd love to hear. You can email me at EGorey99@sbcglobal.net

If you're not near where I'll be teaching, but you're interested in taking a class, I do offer a variety of online classes (16 different online workshops as of 11/27/2011.) You can find out more info on the right side of my main blog.

Classes make wonderful gifts during the holiday season. You'll be feeding a person's spirit as well as supporting an artist. I can create a gift certificate for any of my classes (online or in person). Please email me at EGorey99@sbcglobal.net if you're interested. For those of you whom are interested, I will have information on a new online class some time this week!

Thank YOU for your interest!

2012 class information coming soon
