De-stress, unwind, and enjoy the almost-magical calm that comes from painting with watercolors.

Each week features a different theme -- we'll have some inspiration and supplies ready for you! But feel free to create something else if you'd like.

Want pointers on painting techniques? We'll do our best to help! But please keep in mind that this is not an art class -- it's a chance to be creative and relax while enjoying each other's company in an encouraging environment.
