If you resolved to learn something new this year, the Living Arts & Science Center is here to support you. And while the nonprofit is a haven for kids’ camps and experiences, it just announced the lineup of classes for its Adult Art Club. Think: Pasta-making, herbalism, mug-making, and wheel-throwing.

Classes will take place every Tuesday in February + March, 5:30-7:30 p.m., with two bonus classes in April. The club offers attendees two creative outlets to choose from — cooking or ceramics.

If Tuesdays don’t work for you, maybe one of these workshops will fit your schedule:

  • Couple’s Wheel-Throwing | Just like in the movie “Ghost,” you + your partner are invited to a fun, messy, and romantic time throwing clay. Tickets are $70-$80 and good for two attendees.
  • Beginner Basketry: Learn to Weave | Learn basketry techniques and tricks to make your very on egg basket from reed material. Tickets are $70-80.
