We ask that you arrive at the classroom 5-10 minutes early and sit in the back of the classroom, as there may be assigned seats. If you’re visiting outside of these dates and wish to sit in on a class, please review our Schedule of Classes and reach out to the instructor of the course to ask if they are willing to accommodate a visitor.

All Class Visits are unavailable on September 7, October 12, and November 11.
