Family Friendly Paint Night!

Paint Night! from 5:30 – 7:30 pm on Thursday, February 28, 2019

This workshop is open to adults and families with children 6 and above. You will work to complete your own interpretation of Georgia O'keeffe's colorful painting Hibiscus with Plumeria. Paint Night offers a lively introduction to the creation of your own artwork! There is no right or wrong as you follow the step by step instruction of Michael Giaquinto.

Acrylic paint, canvases, brushes, palette knives, palettes, easels and smocks will be provided. The class is open equally to experienced painters and to those who have never held a brush before. Each person will take away a painting along with new ideas about the creative process and visual expression.
