Manager: Bramley Community Center. How can I help?
Woman: Oh, Hi. I'm calling about the art classes at the center offers. I had a quick look at your website. I think one of the classes is called something like Movement and Light.
Manager: That's right. The focus is on painting in the style of the French Impressionists.
Woman: Yes, I saw that in the description, but I've got a few questions, if you don't mind.
Manager: Sure. Go ahead.
Woman: Well, do I need to bring anything to the class, or is everything supplied?
Manager: Not quite. What you need to do is 1get yourself some brushes. I'd suggest a range of them, you know, in different sizes.
Woman: All right. Yes. I guess it would make sense to bring your own. I'll make a note of that.
Manager: And you know what the fee for the class is?
Woman: For one term, it's $170, isn't it?
Manager: That's right. But if you sign up for two terms, it actually works out cheaper.
Woman: How much would that be?
Manager: 2$285. And we do find that a lot of people sign up for a couple of terms. It's such a great class.
Woman: Okay, I'll give it some thought. And that's on Monday evenings, isn't it?
Manager: Yes. From 06:00 p.m to 08:00 p.m, in room 15.
Woman: And who's the tutor?
Manager: The tutor. He's a local artist. You might have heard of him. Steve Ramdhanie.
Woman: Oh, possibly. How do you spell that surname?
Manager: It's 3R-A-M-D-H-A-N-I-E. Got that?
Woman: Yes, thanks. Now, you've also got a class called Clay Basics. It's a pottery class, right?
Manager: Yes, that's right.
Woman: Do we get to use a pottery wheel?
Manager: Yes, you do.
Woman: Oh, great. But we've been making something simple, I hope. I can't imagine producing a vase or anything with a handle.
Manager: No, in the first term, 4you'd just be producing two or three bowls. That means learning how to shape and glaze them.
Woman: Sounds great. I guess it would be a bit of a messy activity. You wouldn't want to wear your smart clothes, would you?
Manager: Best not to. I'd recommend wearing something old that you didn't mind getting dirty.
Woman: Well, 5I have a shirt like that that I could use. I'll just roll up the sleeves, I guess.
Manager: And the fee for that class is $180 per term.
Woman: All right
Manager: And the class runs on Wednesdays, 6:30 to 08:30 P.m. Oh, hang on, I've got that wrong.
Woman: It's on a 6Thursday, isn't it?
Manager: Yes, my mistake. What else can I tell you? Oh, yes. The tutor's name is Theresa Clark. Her works are on display and reception here.
Woman: Oh, great. I'll have a look.
Manager: Yeah, if you've got time
Woman: Now, the other class I thought looked interesting was sketching architecture.
Manager: Oh, yes, for that one, everyone goes down to the local park because it's surrounded by so many beautiful old buildings.
Woman: All right. Like the old post office.
Manager: Well, I think you begin by drawing 7the library. There's a good view of it from the Park, I believe.
Woman: Okay, nice. Actually. Come to think of it, I think I've seen the sketching class down in the park when I've driven past. Don't they all take a fold up chair with them?
Manager: I believe so
Woman: Is there anything else I ought to know?
Manager: Well, the people who do the class, they tend to make 8a sandwich for themselves and bring that along. So I'd recommend you do that too.
Woman: Good idea. I get grumpy when I'm hungry.
Manager: All right. That's $160 per term for that class. And it's on Fridays from 11:00 A.m. Till one
Woman: So if the classes are in the park, that's quite a big area. Where do we actually meet?
Manager: Good point. Everyone usually heads along just before 11:00 a.m.. And they meet each other at the top of Victoria Street at the 9Station Road end.
Woman: So on the corner? Great. And the tutor is...?
Manager: Annie Li.
Woman: You know what, I'll have to think about the other two, but I'd definitely like to enrol for Annie's class. I'm happy to pay now.
Manager: In that case, you're going to need Annie's cell phone number in case you're running late or the class gets cancelled.
Woman: I see. OK, what's the number, please?
Manager: It's 10021 785 6361. Just text her if there's a problem. Now, how would you like to pay? We can...
