New Classes:
1. Writers Group
2. JEST Improv is excited to bring our fun, beginner-friendly improv comedy drop-in classes to the Ojai community! Starting August 5th at the Ojai Art Center, our weekly classes offer a welcoming space to laugh, meet new people, build confidence, and try something new—no experience necessary.
The classes will be every Wednesday from 8-9:30 pm in the Art Gallery room. Our instructors regularly perform at the Bunker Theater in Ventura and have performed all over Ventura County! Since 2018, we've helped people across Ventura County discover the joy of improv in a supportive, low-pressure environment, and we can't wait to become part of Ojai's exciting arts community. We hope you'll join us and see what all the laughter is about!
