The Event:
At 9AM, you’re invited to paint on the tent-covered rooftop of Pier 57! With 360 degree views of the surrounding cityscape, inspiration is all around you. Whether a beginner or more experienced, please come out and enjoy outdoor painting and the camaraderie of fellow artists.
Starting at 3pm, the group will move indoors to the Seahorse Classroom, for show-and-tell time! Share about your work(s) and experiences, lessons learned, etc., or just soak in the collective learnings.
Please bring your own materials. Materials will not be provided. This is not a formal teaching event but you will learn so much!
