We aim to inspire or nurture your passion with quality programs provided at a reasonable cost. Testimonials Slide 1“We love NCE and are grateful for all you do on our behalf. I don’t toss these words off lightly or gratuitously. I’ve taken cabinet making, piano, tai chi, bridge, and several other courses through NCE. I have built furniture that still sits in most rooms in my home thanks to your programs, played several songs on the piano that have generously been called “music,” and are now having a blast with bridge. We very much appreciate you folks.” Paul T Slide 2“I appreciate the NCE team and their work. Our children had taken many NCE classes throughout the years and had lots of fun, and their behind the scene work is not unnoticed.” Connie W Slide 2“I wanted to say thank you for offering programs during vacation weeks! I signed up my 7th grade daughter for an Acrylic Painting class and it has been just wonderful! She is loving the class, and has learned so much in such a short time. It has been so great for her to have this fun, confidence building, creative outlet. The class has exceeded my expectations!” Anonymous Parent
