I'm No Van Gogh Paint Night

Open to anyone regardless of your skill level.  Everyone from experienced painters to someone who has never even picked up a paintbrush is welcome.

This is a time of self-expression, not a teaching class. Come and paint whatever the canvas inspires in you!  

All supplies will be provided. Please dress in clothing you won’t mind getting messy.

Everyone who participates will be able to take their paintings home at the end of the evening.

Registration is required and space is limited.
