2018 WORKSHOPS ~ Workshop Catalog & Registration
Participants will notice the new "Pop-Up" workshops. These are not scheduled in advance, but rather when we have time and space available. The only advertising for them is through Facebook, so "Like" the page if you haven't already. Also, if you cannot attend a class, you can gather a group of friends and family and schedule a private workshop. If a workshop is full, join the waiting list by emailing ccfm@collincountytx.gov because if enough people are on the list - a second workshop can be scheduled!
