West Chester, Ohio – Back-to-school week continued as the Fitton Center for Creative Arts hosted the first Creative Aging course - Mosaics - at its new Fitton at the Foundry satellite location in Liberty Center.
Instructor Lori Kay Farr welcomed five students - four of them brand new to mosaics - to a two-hour class at 1:30 p.m. Thursday, September 12.
The inaugural run of Fitton at the Foundry began with a Kids Drawing & Painting class September 10 and continued with a Watercolor Basics class on September 11.
"It's been an absolutely incredible week for the Fitton Center and for Fitton at the Foundry," said Ian MacKenzie-Thurley, executive director. "We've been doing classes at the Fitton Center for 30-plus years; we've got that down pretty well.
"The new space, the new setup, it's gone very well, but we're learning, too. We'll make some adjustments and keep making it better for our students and our instructors, but we're very pleased with how things have started. We're looking forward to seeing how things grow there."
Fall I classes continue weekly at the Foundry through October 17. All three courses return for Fitton at the Foundry's Fall II session beginning the last week of October. Registration is open now; early-bird pricing runs through October 21.
