Evening Mini-Classes, Summer 2025
Mini-classes meet Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday night from 6:00 -7:15 pm during the week they are offered. They are a great way for a weeklong student to extend their learning day or for a local resident to experience the magic of Augusta after work.
The cost of tuition for a mini-class is $75. When you register, you can choose the option to add an event pass for the week, which will give you access to all of the evening activities for the week (concerts, dances, etc.) in addition to your class. If you are already a full-day student in the week that you’re registering for, you already don’t need the additional event pass!
