Oil Painting Workshop - July 22, 2018, 10:00am - 4:00pm
Spend a day in the garden celebrating Edward Hopper's Birthday with an oil painting workshop taught by Anne Kullaf.

After the demo, we'll take a short break for lunch and then bring out our paints to capture to light on the architecture and the gardens. Ms. Kullaf will provide individualized instruction and critique to each participant. We will end the workshop with a group discussion about the works produced during the workshop.
