Learn to paint in the style of Dutch artist Vincent van Gogh – no painting experience necessary! In this fun class, Teaching Artist Tess will show you a variety of techniques and she’ll guide you every step of the way as you paint Van Gogh’s “Roses” (1890) . Bring a favorite beer or wine, if you’d like – ACE provides a non-alcoholic beverage – and enjoy complimentary snacks, meet new people, and explore acrylic painting in a fun, no-pressure environment. At the end of the evening, you’ll take your amazing painting home. All supplies included. Please enter through the 5th Street door.
