What’s your
dream class?
Everyone has something they’ve always
dreamed of trying. Whether it’s studying
Japanese, creating a vegetable garden,
or learning to invest in the stock market,
sometimes exploring your interests can
seem out of reach.
At PCC’s Community Education, we can

make your dream come true! Affordable,
fun classes in your neighborhood exist
because members of the community
express an interest. We care about what
you care about.
That’s why we’re always on the lookout
for new class ideas and subjects that will
allow you to explore, create, grow and learn.
Do you have an idea for a new class?
Let us know!
Or maybe you have a special skill or
knowledge you’d like to share with others?
After all, Community Education teachers
are just as much a part of the community
as students are. Professional certification
is not required – just experience with and
passion for your subject, and an ability to
share it with others.

We look forward to hearing from you!
