De-stress, unwind, and enjoy the almost-magical calm that comes from painting with watercolors. This week's inspirations will honor April Fools' Day -- whimsical, humorous, and maybe a little silly.

See the colors flow from your imagination to the paper and let your worries drift away for a while.

This program is for adults 18+.
