    Ten seats. One afternoon. Grab your spot before it’s gone.

  • Needle Felting: Painting with Felt Thursday 9/24 1-4pm

    Ten seats. One afternoon. Grab your spot before it’s gone.

  • Acrylic Painting – Color Theory Wednesday 9/30 5:30-8:30pm

    In this three-hour workshop, students mix their way through color theory. Learn how color relationships shape a painting’s mood. Then: postcard-sized studies — analogous, complementary, tint, shade, saturation. Small studies mean freedom to experiment. Leave mixing and choosing color with confidence.
    Ten seats. One evening. Grab your spot before it’s gone.
