Sarah Lapine, PES parent and longtime fiber arts enthusiast, will teach students the basics of hand sewing and weaving. Students will have the opportunity to work on projects within each discipline and hopefully end the class with some finished products and a new lifelong hobby. Supplies will be provided; however, if a student has materials (fabric, yarn, etc) that they would like to bring in, they are welcome to do so. While knitting will not be taught, those who know how to knit and can do so independently may bring knitting projects to work on. Students who have previously participated in this program or have prior experience in fiber arts will have opportunities for some more advanced and/or self-directed projects.

If you have an orchestral instrument: flute, oboe, clarinet, trumpet, French horn, trombone, violin, viola or cello, double bass, and have prior musical experience (even from decades ago) on your instrument, this is a wonderful way to revisit and rekindle your musical skills.

Students will have the opportunity to work on projects within each discipline and hopefully end the class with some finished products and a new lifelong hobby.

Making Music Again - Making Music Again
Do you have an old band instrument lying around in your attic? Did you play a musical instrument as a kid and have always wanted to pick it back up? If you have an orchestral instrument: flute, oboe, clarinet, trumpet, French horn, trombone, violin, viola or cello, double bass, and have prior musical experience (even from decades ago) on your instrument, this is a wonderful way to revisit and rekindle your musical skills. This eight-week course will get you back into the swing of music making. All musicians will receive simple sheet music to play through. Together as an ensemble we will practice, make mistakes, and explore concepts such as tuning, tone, technique, balance, rhythm, and dynamics.
