Are you stuck for ideas for what to buy (or ask for!) for Christmas?
If so, look no further, as all of Frome Community Education’s Spring term courses are now available to buy online.
Frome’s very own Community Interest Company specializes in providing interesting, thought-provoking and above all, affordable adult education courses. With lots of brand-new courses, as well as all of their existing courses in health and wellbeing, arts and crafts, words and literature, languages and culture, there is definitely something for everyone.
Fancy improving your fitness? Elaine Ewens’ sell out yoga classes have prompted her to offer a new morning class on Wednesdays. Alternatively, Jackie Adkins, tutor of Move With Ease – the Feldenkrais Method, offers you the opportunity to improve your flexibility with a new evening course on Thursdays.
Or, perhaps you would prefer to exercise your brain? In which case FCE have no shortage of courses to really exercise the little grey cells from a more comfortable seated position! Graham Burgess has introduced a sequel to his popular “Philosophy As If It Mattered” class and Charles Prior is offering a new course on the History of Architecture and Decorative Styles as well as a follow up to his popular design course “Interior Design and Decoration PLUS”.
If creativity is more your thing, there is plenty of that on offer too. Catherine Beale returns with two new watercolour one-day classes, “Mysterious Moonscape Watercolours” and “Patterned Watercolour Hillsides”. Jessica Wilker is also introducing a one-day workshop of “Collage In the Footsteps of Pop Art” whilst Jeanette Magson is running a “Let’s Go Down To The Sea” painting workshop to paint the landscape of the sea on silk, paper and fabric whilst experiencing soothing meditation music of the sounds of the sea.
“The number and variety of courses we have available for the Spring Term is really impressive” says programme manager, Pia McGee. “Any one of them would make a thoughtful, affordable and sustainable Christmas gift! Classes start from just £18. To see the whole programme, visit www.fromecommed.org.uk and book online or visit the Box Office at the Cheese & Grain.”
