Instructor Showcase

It's time to show off our instructors! Not only are they great educators, but they also have lively practices of their own. We are excited to show of their work and give you an opportunity to meet them and ask any questions you might have! Have you had your eye on one of our classes, but have questions? This is a great opportunity to get familiar with your instructor and see what inspires their instruction.

Along with artwork and blacksmithing demonstrations, you can enjoy live music by Asher Stern and yummy eats by Pierogi Peddler.
