Where: Casa de Cultura
Cost: R$30 per month for unlimited classes
How to: Sign up at the front desk of the Casa de Cultura. You will be given a tour of the workshop areas and meet any instructors who happen to be on campus at the time. Jorge Pinheiro is usually on hand and speaks enough English to help you get started.



Available Classes:

Pintura em telha (painting on tile) - Wednesdays 9am to 11am.

Decoupage - Mondays and Wednesdays 9am to 11am (minimum 5 students)

Classes are taught in Portuguese, but they are very hands-on. I have met several of the instructors and all are friendly, helpful, and hopeful to add a few "estrangeiros" to their classes!
