Enjoy painting or woodworking? Adult Ed Classes now forming

Does the winter bring on the doldrums? Brighten up your life by taking some adult education classes. There are a few night classes at Western Branch High School in Chesapeake with empty slots. If painting is your interest, you can sign up for Painting: Techniques, Styles and Skills. This class will be held on Monday nights and run from February 6 through April 23, 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. Chesapeake teachers pay $86.25. Chesapeake residents - $115. Non-residents- $220. It's amazing what artwork is produced in these classes! I've taken them myself and Mr. Knight is a terrific teacher.

There is also a  beginning woodworking class available Tuesdays, February 7 through April 17 at Western Branch High School, 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.. Same prices as those listed above. Mr. Ashman is an excellent teacher as well. The previous deadline was today, January 20,  but it has been extended for a week.
