SPECIAL TO THE NEWS
Start out the new year creatively! Join us at the Grove Art Gallery for a few exciting art workshops that are currently being planned.
BASIC COLOURED PENCIL WORKSHOP
Join Jim Sears for another fun and creative workshop on Saturday, Feb. 24 at the Grove Art Gallery.
This workshop is for beginners or experienced artists who wish to experiment with the use of coloured pencils to create their artwork or complement another medium. Some experience with colour mixing and basic composition would be an asset. Coloured pencils offer another dimension of detail and effects. The cost is $75.
ACRYLIC PAINTING WORKSHOPS
Making Waves — Whether you are making crashing waves, soft tide ripples, or swirling water, you will get into the rhythm of painting water works in this one-day class with Susan Schaefer on April 13 from 10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. The cost is $125.
Limited Palette — Using only three primary colours (plus white), Susan Schaefer will show you how to paint with confidence while using a simple palette. This workshop costs $125 and takes place Saturday, June 8 from 10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.
GROVE CLOSED UNTIL JAN. 30
Please note, the Grove Art Gallery will be closed for the holiday season, reopening on Tuesday, Jan. 30. The Arts Council and our team would like to wish you and your loved ones a warm and joyful holiday season!
Here’s to a healthy and happy 2024 ahead!
