Saturday Workshops & Classes
The majority of our workshops are held in one of our venues. We will also have workshops at other locations in the Carlton Landing community!

The Welcome Center
Located at the corner of Park and Water Street, directly across from Mama Tig’s Pizzeria, the Welcome Center (29 Water Street) provides a comfortable indoor setting for classes and activities. The space transitions from structured sessions earlier in the day to a relaxed afternoon & evening of Mah Jong, offering a welcoming place to learn, gather, and connect.

Carlton Landing Academy “Green Door”
Located at 10 Boulevard on the beautiful Carlton Landing Academy campus, the “Green Door” building offers a welcoming setting at one of the community’s cornerstone organizations. Enter from Academy Lane, across from the event parking lot. Outdoor picnic tables provide a shady spot to relax, recharge, or connect with others between Wellness Weekend sessions.

Pavilion Park
Nestled between the one-way lanes of Boulevard and across from The Meeting House, Pavilion Park offers a shady, tree-filled setting for Wellness Weekend. The pavilion’s East and West wings will host classes throughout the day. The firepit & seating area make it an inviting place to linger between sessions—especially if the weather brings a hint of fall.

Lakefront Pavilion
The Lakefront Pavilion located at 48 Water Street, serves as the starting point for the Osprey Run—featuring 5K, 2 Mile, and 1 Mile routes—all benefiting Carlton Landing Academy. Throughout the afternoon and evening, the Pavilion hosts a full lineup of classes and experiences overlooking the lake, making it a central gathering place for movement, learning, and connection.
