Transform your date night into a daytime rendezvous where it's all planned for you by joining Walk Eat Nashville. Two dates offered.
 
Calling all carnivores and whiskey lovers — join renowned chef Matt Bolus of The 404 Kitchen to learn the secrets of cooking with Red Meat and "Brown Water."
 
Let them eat king cake — Mardis Gras is just around the corner and Village Bakery + Provisions owner Sam Tucker will teach you how to make a festive king cake for your own celebration.
 
As Dolly Parton famously stated in "Steel Magnolias," "time marches on and sooner or later you realize it is marching across your face." Our Skin Care 101 Class will address your skincare questions.
 
Have your kids become more independent? Are you wondering what is next for you? What Do I Want to be When They Grow Up explores that question through the lens of the Enneagram and the Ikigai and helps direct you to your next path just as your kids are pursuing theirs.
 
Grammatical nuts and bolts may not appear alluring, but having the ability to craft grammatically correct text appeals to those in both your personal and professional realms. Practical Grammar Magic will equip you with all you need to know to express yourself coherently.
 
Not all stories need to be written to be shared. In Story Exchange pairs of participants build empathy and community by retelling their partner's personal story in a first-person narrative. This class is a celebration of the power of listening to one another.
 
For a meal worth sharing, sign up for Southern Cooking with Edible Executive Chef Skylar Bush. "All southern cooking has roots in three simple principles: use what you have, give honor to the process, and don’t serve anything your grandmother wouldn’t like." A crowd pleaser for sure.

We hope you enjoy perusing the catalog and find something that's right for you. To register, simply click the class title in the description of the courses above or view the full catalog here
