LEWISTON — Lewiston Adult Education has a variety of courses available this summer for those interested in gearing up for college, finishing a high school diploma/GED or building workforce and computer skills. Most classes start July 9.

This summer, the Culinary Arts Certificate course is back by popular demand. Participants will join Chef Dan Caron to learn the basics of working in a professional kitchen, and then gain hands-on experience as they work at Green Ladle catering functions.
