And did you know that chocolate is good for you? All the questions you’ve ever had about chocolate are answered in this class. You’ll even learn what your chocolate preference says about your personality. This class is not for the faint of heart, as we will sample chocolates from the world over, ranging from white chocolate, all the way up to 99% cacao. So, if chocolate is an invaluable part of your life, then this program is for you!

ONLY 2 SEATS LEFT for Watercolor Boot Camp Tomorrow!

watercolorSpend a full day immersed in this beloved art form. Watercolor is a translucent medium that sinks into the fiber of a sheet of paper, releasing the light from the surface. Watercolor dries fast, enabling one to work quickly with freshness and spontaneity. We will explore the medium in an intensive workshop that will cover the fundamentals. http://www.ccae.org/catalog/detail.php?id=572002
