We work hard to find local experts to share their knowledge with our community. We offer lectures, hands-on workshops, and cooking classes. We hope you’ll join us for a class in the Community Room.

Interested in teaching a class at the Common Market? Just fill out our Class Proposal Form. Please note that Common Market classes are largely demonstration-style, not participatory classes, except where noted otherwise. Please email our Events & Education Coordinator for more information at education@commonmarket.coop
