How do I set up a class/workshop?

Please reach out through the Contact Us page with information about the location, audience (ages, estimated number), and what kind of program you are looking for. Classes can be adapted for almost any audience!

We will let you know if we are available as well as more information about pricing. Like other visits, pricing is dependent on distance, estimated time, and materials costs (for craft workshops).
