Art classes

Put a personal spin on the "Handcrafted in the Amana Colonies" label at Amana Arts Guild workshops, including classes in basketry, watercolors, ceramics and silkscreen prints. Make a reservation for a weekend or weeklong class September-October (319/622-3678; amanaartsguild.com). Or take a class in an artist's studio, such as painter Michele Maring Miller's weekend classes. Reservations required (319/622-6330; maringmillergallery.com).
