I've taken classes and taught workshops at ArtWaves. It's a pretty special place, with a friendly and welcoming community. Classes range from introductory level to fairly advanced, and the overall atmosphere is 'Everybody is an artist, come on in!' Love the energy there.

Went to see a Celtic trio recently, and the historic venue was quaint and comfortable. They even offered fresh bake cakes and pies prior to the show. This is a must for a Friday evening if you are in the area. I will make this a regular spot for me in the future. Look for schedule of events on their website.
