The Comeback of Cursive
We were thrilled when the Washington Post visited our Cursive Camp in August and we look forward to continuing the important #CursiveConversation during the coming months.

Cocktails & Cursive
There was a tremendous response to our Cursive Camp from adults--some who had never been taught to write in cursive when they were in elementary school, and some who wished for a refresher course.
We were listening! Join us for an adult beverage and a lot of fun as we present Cocktails & Cursive. On Fridays, October 19th and November 16th, from 5-7 pm, we will host two evenings of reading and writing in cursive. Cathy Johnson who taught our campers will be teaching these evenings as well and there will be activities for both the beginner and more experienced writers among us.
Contact us at 203-743-5200--or use the PayPal link HERE to register. Each evening will have a different curriculum, so you'll want to just us for both. $20 per person, per night.
On exhibit through 11/10/18
