Creative Clay: ‘Pumpkins’ classes will be held from 6:00-8:00pm Mondays, October 4th and 18th in the Arts Council clay studio, 110 W. State St., Olean.

“The Arts Council is excited to have Linda Georgian step back in history with us to teach the vintage lacework of Tatting. If you enjoy crochet, knitting, embroidery, or sewing, then there's an excellent chance that you'll enjoy tatting,” Braun said.
