Me Time
"Create at your own pace!"
Me Time
What is "Me time"?
Me time is a chance for you to be creative at
your own pace.
Whether you want to get your feet wet or
further develop an existing work of art without
incurring the costs associated with getting
your own equipment, me time is for you.
During "Me time" you have access to our
classroom and our equipment to pursue
whatever your feel like. You may also elect to
sign-up for one of our memberships. It will
allow you to access our facilities during "Me
time" at a reduced rate.
