Sip and Paint Acrylics: Winter Wreath
December 6th
10:30 - 11:30am PT
Come together with a warm beverage and let's play with acrylic painting! We will create a whimsical holiday wreath together - and invite you to explore your creative aesthetic and style. Much like our fingerprints we are all unique - we will help you discover and try different aesthetics in finding your creative style. You can explore hyper-realism in your wreath or go for something abstract or representational - we will provide you with examples of each style and invite you to create your own!

Memoir: Family Stories
November 3rd
1:30 - 2:30pm PT
Every family has its lore regarding holidays, family jokes, vacations, grudges—moments big and small that resonate with us and form our sense of family identity. Family memoirs remind yourself and your relatives who you are and what it means to be connected to others. Getting these on paper is a way to bring young and old—both stories and people—together. Please have a family photo or two on hand and bring paper and something to write with.
