Most of our classes are scheduled for about 3 hours, but every class is a little different. People work at different speeds and some recipes or techniques may take a bit longer, so sometimes a class may wrap up a little sooner—or run a bit past the 3-hour mark. We’ll always do our best to stay on schedule, and we appreciate your flexibility as we make sure everyone has a great hands-on experience
