I’m going to do something different for this post about the workshops, events, and classes that our regular contributors have planned: I’ll be including the information about them for June, July, and August, instead of just next month. In addition, because we have returned to in-person teaching, our teachers are all currently looking for new opportunities to teach in-person workshops as well as online workshops. So, for all your studio owners, I’m going to list for each teacher which types of workshops they would like to teach in the future. I think the list of areas of expertise that our writers have is quite impressive! If you do find that there is a teacher you’d like to come to your studio, you can contact that teacher directly through the email address that I’m providing.

As always, the teachers names are listed in alphabetical order by first name.
