Welcome to Our New Web Site!
We're still in the process of building the new site, so please be patient with us. The new site should make it easier for you to navigate, sign up for workshops, and manage your Vendor and Instructor information. Thanks again for your patience while we work out all the kinks! We promise it'll be worth it.
Questions or issues? Please contact the Webmaster.
