Community Calendar

The Laramie Urban Sketchers group meets every Saturday at a new location to draw our surroundings. Previous meet-ups have been Downtown Laramie, Laramie Parks, the Wyoming Women's History Museum, local cafes, etc.
We draw the architechture, people, objects, and events around us for two hours, then meet back up to admire everyone's work and talk about our sketching that day.
It's a welcoming group with members of all ages and skill levels. Our goal is to document Laramie with our sketchbooks, and build a friendly community of people who like to make art together!

Join our facebook group, follow us on instagram, or sign up for our mailing list to receive updates on our previous and upcoming meet-ups!

Creative Aging: Tap
Mondays, 1:30–2:30 PM @ DW
January 11 – March 1
Tap shoes provided if needed.

We will partner with Amelia Terrapin, DW Executive Director, professional dancer and educator with years experience teaching older adults. Participants will explore the rhythms and joy of tap, beginning with fundamental vocabulary and musicality and progressing toward short combinations. Over the eight weeks, participants will develop confidence, coordination, and self-expression. Tap shoes will be made available by DW, and the class can be done either seated or standing, adapting to meet a wide range of mobility levels.

Learn more at dwjh.org/workshops. All classes are $10/drop-in or pay what you can. No one will be turned away for lack of funds.

Creative Aging: Movement for Mobility
Mondays, 1:30–2:30 PM @ DW
March 8 – May 10

This series will be taught by Sarah Hemphill, DW Adult Program Coordinator and certified Pilates instructor. Sarah has trained in the Moving Through Parkinson’s modality with the Center for Healthy Aging at Colorado State University and has years of experience working with older adults. This class series is rooted in creative movement practices adapted for individuals living with movement challenges.

Participants will focus on balance, coordination, spatial awareness, and creative expression. Each week introduces new movement ideas while revisiting and deepening previous skills, encouraging both continuity and mastery. This class combats the isolation experienced by some in this demographic by fostering social connection while supporting physical and emotional well-being.
