The Basic course will be taught on alternating Saturdays and Tuesdays of each month. The Advanced course will be offered on the remaining Saturdays and Tuesdays. On Thursdays, other classes will vary (see the calendar). The Digital Camera/Color Management Workflow course will fill up fast. So, you will want to reserve your space early. This course is a must for the professional and serious amateur photographer.
