Individual Skills

Immerse yourself in an informal workshop environment as you try your hand at a new skill, or brush up on an old hobby. Learn the techniques of nature photography; take up the watercolorist's brush and palette; learn the secrets of Chinese or Southwestern cooking; study the ancient disciplines of yoga or tai chi; become a wiz at surfing the Internet and using computer software; or reconnect with our nation's cultural heritage with hands-on studies in traditional pottery-making, weaving, basketry, woodworking and more. Experienced artists, craftspeople, photographers, computer and other experts are your guides for these forays into the creative experience.
