Most classes are 3 hours long with a few 4-hour classes. All safety and sanitation measures are in place. All that we ask is please do not come if you have any Covid symptoms or have been near someone who has tested positive/has Covid. Masks required if you are not vaccinated. The private party scenario has become extremely popular in these uncertain times. Hopefully this will be a temporary change and we will soon be back to “normal”…. hopefully by September.
IF interested in our “hands-on ” classes please call for a list of available dates, let us know of allergies/dietary restrictions, choose a menu and come hungry!! BTW, all classes are BYOB!
GIFT CERTIFICATES ALWAYS AVAILABLE….CALL 412-362-0679
