Default Birthday gift

Years ago my wife presented me with a birthday gift of a week long carving class with John Burke. It was probably my best gift ever. This year she suggested I receive another birthday gift class. Is there an easy way to find classes on the web? Is it possible to take a class from someone like Desiree Hajny, Floyd Scholz, Harold Enlow, etc. I'm sure there are many talented carvers out there who teach seminars. How does one find them. If not this year then maybe next? Thanks for any responses.
Larry

I saw an ad this morning in the summer issue of WCI, Harold Enlow is teaching I think in August at Hill and Holler (I think it was called). It was in the back of the magazine. I will try to find more info. for you. Not sure on the others, someone else may know.

Thanks Dave. I can't seem to find my recent copy of WCI. Spent the weekend tearing the house apart looking for it as I thought it would be the best place to look for classes. Nothing is listed in Carving magazine.

Thanks Claude. Never having been to one of these I thought they were just shows/competitions. I see now they do have seminars. With the cost of flying I would prefer to find one longer than a couple of days but it looks as if there are a few. Thanks again.
