I'm Maggie, owner of Petals & Vines in Monmouth. I'm very interested in taking the class on window display. If there are any other classes I can take, I would appreciate an update or schedule. I went online at the city website and couldn't find any information. I find this extremely frustrating. I am hopeful that there will be some interest in forming a group in Monmouth.
