For more than twenty years, in good economic times and bad, the Adult & Community Education Center (ACEC) has provided the Sarasota community with lifelong learning opportunities. Offering many new and exciting classes, we are approaching the next year positively. *

Realizing some may not have the luxury of taking lengthy classes, we are adding to the number of "One Day Workshops" (click on the one day workshop icon) in everything from technology to self-improvement and from floral design to cuisine. We are continuing the favorite ancestry and writing workshops, but have added one-day sessions on using the BlackBerry and Office 2007. Looking for fun on the water? You can now learn scuba diving, safe boating, and fly fishing, all through ACEC.

We are also increasing the number of money-saving classes, including home, automotive and small engine repair and landscaping your own yard. Artists can learn to stretch and frame their own work. Or join those who become skilled at creating their own gifts or greeting cards. Reap the rewards - both personal and financial - of completing your own project.

Enrichment classes provide nourishment for the mind and body and can certainly help alleviate the stress many of us may be feeling. We are taking a proactive approach by providing something for everyone. Whether it is for self-improvement or simply for pleasure, the offerings are varied, affordable, and exciting!

Take your time and browse our user-friendly web site and choose a class that is just for you! Also, please take time to check out our new "Patron Program" which will assist in supporting education in Sarasota County.

Adult Enrichment classes are open to adults, age 18 and older, unless otherwise noted.
