Here's how to get a free class at Bella's Flock this summer:

➡️ Pick up a Third Thursday booklet from us or any other participating store ($2)
➡️ Stop into the store between 5-8pm on the Third Thursday (like July 20) to get your book stamped and either sign up for a class or pick up a voucher with a code to sign up online.
➡️ Get $20 off registration + $12 off supplies for any class currently on our schedule. For most classes this is the full cost and your class will be FREE!

Check out the other great deals from our neighbors too ... but we think we have the very best deal in the book 😉

Note: The class does not have to be held on a Third Thursday - this is for any class (but if there are still last minute openings for that night's class it would be an option).
