Each session will be two hours long and will have approximately one hour of instruction and teaching and one hour of Q&A.

This series is free and open to ALL people. Children and families are welcome. Snacks will be provided.  Bring a notebook if you want.  Feel free to drop in for a single session, for a couple, or for all of them.  It is not necessary to come to all six sessions but each session will cover something different.
