Ever read something so funny you had to wipe tears away or just had to share it with your friends? Comedy writing may feel like magic, but in this workshop we will break it down. Participants will learn the basics of what makes writing humorous including focus on subject matter, beats, rhythm, word choice, and editing. Participants will read examples of comedic and write their own material. Comedy writing is not just about the writing though. Comedy writing is about delivery as well. Participants will bring their work to life by performing pieces of their writing on the classroom stage. No previous writing or stage experience needed. Instructed by Dr. Joseph Richards. Class for ages 18+. Minimum of 5 registrants for class to be held. Class held at Alamance Arts - 213 S. Main St in Graham.

Join local artist, Ashley Whiston, in creating a beautiful acrylic painting where you bring a bouquet of fresh florals to life on an 11×14 canvas. This class will focus on observation, composition and capturing the beauty of fresh florals on canvas. This workshop is from 10 am - 5 pm on Saturday, August 29 at Alamance Arts. There will be a break at lunchtime (1 hour) for you to enjoy a bagged lunch from home OR head out to enjoy one of the many nearby restaurants. You’ll also have time to view the America 250 Exhibit and look around Picasso’s gift shop. All supplies are included.
