I don’t know about you, but I had a busy week. Work has been crazy and every night I’ve had errands to run and engagements to attend. Well, it’s finally Friday and the weekend has arrived.
This weekend I wanted to do something different and I found just the activity. While looking in the local newspaper, I discovered a class that I’m going to take. It’s at this place called the Torpedo Factory Art Center in Alexandria, VA. They offer all different types of art classes like painting and drawing, but the one I want to take is called ‘Jump Start in Ceramics”. I’ve never worked with ceramics much (beside the ashtray I made in 7th grade) and it should be fun. I'm always looking to meet new people and I've heard that taking a class totally unrelated to work as a stress reliever
The neat thing about the class it’s only 2.5 hours long. So I don’t have to invest a lot of time – especially if pottery isn’t my thing. And it’s relatively inexpensive, it only costs about $35. So if it’s not for me, then I can find something else to do.
I bet if you looked you could find an art class in your area. Try drawing, pottery, or underwater basketweaving - you'll learn a new skill and have some fun.
