At the end of the class your freshly arranged creation in a mason jar is yours to take home. Cost per person is $20 for members and $30 for non-members, and includes all supplies needed for the class.

Wine Tasting with WineStyles Hills Bank in Iowa City (1401 S Gilbert St) Tuesday, April 21, 6:00 p.m.
Jeff McGinnes, manager of WineStyles in Coralville, will lead a sampling of several different types of wine. The original idea of WineStyles came from the belief that great wines don’t have to be expensive. WineStyles offers hundreds of wines and craft beers that have been sorted by style and taste, so everyone is sure to find something they like. Light refreshments will be provided to complement the wine samples. Cost per person is $5 for members and $10 for non-members. Register with a Friends Club representative at 319-679-2103 or Dawn_Lyons@HillsBank.com.
