About

Classes in red are future classes that you can select to find out more information; you will be redirected to the class's registration page on the Town of Wake Forest's online registration platform called RecDesk.

You are required to have a RecDesk account before you register for a class, and the Town only accepts payment for classes through your online RecDesk account (the Town cannot accept cash or checks for classes at this time). If you need assistance setting up your RecDesk account, please give our Art Liaison, April Cannon, a call at 919-435-9568 (please leave a voicemail if applicable). You can also email her at acannon@wakeforestnc.gov.

Please note that scholarships are available for some classes, camps, and workshops. To find out more information, please give our Centre Specialist, Debra Horton, a call at 919-435-9566 (please leave a voicemail if applicable). You can also email her at dhorton@wakeforestnc.gov.
