Learn a new skill and create a masterpiece
Unglued is a great headquarters for crafting workshops year-round.
Summer offers a welcome break from schoolwork, no matter how brief. It is a time to devote to leisurely activities you’ve been putting off in favor of actually passing your classes.
Make the most of this fleeting time by taking advantage of the countless art classes the Fargo area has to offer.
