5 REASONS TO CHECK OUT SUNDAY ART CLASSES @ THE FRIDGE DC gallery (on capital hill)










1. because its Free (i'm poor so this is good)

2. you can't get these art classes anywhere (from how to dj, breakdance, poetry, drawing, design and more)

3. you feel better afterward (its true, i can feel blah that day but after the art class i feel more creative and happy, art heals ya'll)

4. classes are diverse (ages, backgrounds...its a mixed pot, which creates a really great community vibe for the class)

5. okay this is my last reason....because Albus Cavus, an awesome arts organization is running it, and if they are running these classes then it must be a blast!!!!!!!!

Alicia Cosnahan is the director!!
