Field Course for Old House & Barn Owners This is a course for people who have an old house and/or an old barn, want to, or just love them! The first session is in the classroom. After that, meetings will be held in the old homes and barns of class members. There will be as many sessions as are required to visit the houses of class members who want their houses visited. The last class will be a potluck supper at the instructor’s house, where class members can visit the historic features of Alna, see the instructor’s cabinet-making shop and barns, and delve into his reference library on early buildings. Les Fossel is one of Maine’s foremost experts on early buildings. His awardwinning business has specialized in preserving our early buildings since 1975.

In just a few hours, you can learn enough secrets of the trade to give you years of musical enjoyment. Learn to play piano the way professionals do – using chords. The chord method is LOTS of fun and dramatically easier to learn than reading notes. Fee includes an online book, online follow-up lessons, a recording of the class, and also an optional periodic question and answer session. Class is held online using Zoom and is partly hands-on instruction and partly lecture demonstration. Ages 13-plus. Students must have an audio- and video-enabled laptop, desktop, or tablet with reliable internet to participate in class. We do not recommend using a smartphone.
