AKER CITY — Several
scheduled classes have
changed, and some have fi lled
up, but staff at Crossroads Carn-
egie Art Center said interested
participants should check out
the new list of off erings.
“A few classes are full, but
we really encourage folks to
contact us to be placed on
the waiting list so we can fill
cancellations or update them
when future classes happen,”
said Katie Ash, education
coordinator.
One of those classes is
Portrait Painting with Brian
Vegter. The seven-week
course is full, but those who
are interested can get their
name on a waiting list. Also
full is the multi-session Adult
Wheel Throwing for Begin-
ners — call to be placed on a
waiting list.
Here’s a look at classes
starting in January. All are
held at Crossroads, 2020
Auburn Ave. To register, go to

Art, like life, is about the jour-

gram, which is supported by
