New Digital Scrapbooking Class


We have just added a new Digital Scrapbooking class in September. Sarah and Karla will be bringing us this wonderful introduction to digital scrapbooking, starting on Tuesday, September 21st. With digital scrapbooking, there is no printing pictures and no extra supplies that are needed. This course is an introduction to digital scrapbooking through a web-based company called Heritage Makers. This course is made up of two 2-hour sessions. You will create a 12x12 page and a 5x7 greeting card. You need some knowledge of the computer, a laptop computer (unless other arrangements are made with the instructor) and photos saved to a USB storage device or a CD. Can't wait for to check this class out myself.

We're In The News!

We are so excited to be featured in today's (8/20/10) issue of the Saginaw News. The article is about Old Town University's passion for lifelong learning. Pick up a paper or check the article out HERE.

September Calendar


Just finished putting some of September's classes on the website. Still have more classes, workshops and events to get up yet. More class samples to do too. Already working on October and November classes too. We have our Holiday Open House on the calendar now (November 7th, 2010) with more details coming soon.

The Travel Mini Album is too cute! We will have a couple of the kits for this mini album for sale at the Loft. Really like the Tuesday Techniques samples too. Love using chalk on paper crafts. Next month's techniques are image transfers. It'll be fun.

August and September


Can't believe that we are into the second week of August and September is right around the corner. The summer is flying by with fall and school almost here. We have two more weeks in our Youth Program - lots of fun stuff for the kids to do. My kids are looking forward to the Travels Through Time gatherings. Who wouldn't like having a prehistoric adventure, visiting ancient Egypt, finding pirate treasure and checking out the Wild West?? The kids photography class is going to be great. Love pictures taken from my kids perspective. I know that the painted frame, garden stone and painted apron will be lots of fun for the kids to do. Got to get in those last few fun filled weeks before school starts.

We're finishing up our September calendar. Plenty of interesting classes, workshops and events coming up. Just need to work out a few more details and verify info with the instructors. Once that is done everything will be put up on the website. A newsletter will be going out shortly after with the info too. Plenty to do around here this fall.
