This workshop is designed for one adult and one child in grades 1–5 to attend together! Working as a team, artists will create a single mixed media painting inspired by folk art tree designs. They’ll explore tree imagery, experiment with tissue paper dye transfer, and paint a swirling winter background. Then they’ll cut, decorate, and arrange their own colorful trees on canvas, adding snow to complete the scene. It’s a fun and creative way to spend time together, and you’ll leave with a unique piece to hang at home! Registration covers both participants. All supplies provided.

Unwind in this one-hour evening workshop designed to bring joy back into the painting process. Each session focuses on painting as a flow art, where the emphasis is on exploration and creativity rather than the final result. Students will engage in playful projects that spark child-like imagination while gently challenging the inner perfectionist. Along the way, participants will learn foundational painting techniques they can apply in a relaxed, supportive setting. Inspiration will also come from artists such as Alma Thomas and Hilma af Klint, whose distinctive styles celebrate color, pattern, and expression. Acrylic paint will be the main medium, with opportunities to experiment with watercolor, paint pens, and more. Take one workshop or all three: the choice is yours! Participants are encouraged to bring tea or a non-alcoholic beverage of their choice to enjoy while they paint. All skill levels welcome and all supplies provided.
