Welcome to Continuing Education! Encouraging Immersive Learning Since 1970 “That is the way to learn the most… when you are doing something with such enjoyment that you don’t notice that the time passes.” – Albert Einstein Learning is almost effortless when you find yourself so immersed in an experience, you lose track of time. It also may be a sign that you're in a Continuing Ed class. Web design, yoga, ceramics, wine tasting – set time aside to focus and playfully engage in something this summer.

I needed dedicated time to jumpstart my creative process. It was a great gift to myself to know I had dedicated a couple of hours a week to art and creativity. – Caroline on The Artist’s Sketchbook: A Visual Journal with Karla Freiheit
