Individual Ongoing Offering
NEW - Piano Lessons:
Piano is a wonderful hobby to start or renew at any time. In our senior years, it can be very healthy, nurturing, and fun. I give the lessons at my place and have a cat who thinks everyone who enters here has come to visit him. To arrange your in-person sessions, contact Sandra Star at starrsandra584mb@gmail.com
