Creative Workshop
After you’ve been inspired by the Georgia O’Keeffe exhibition, stop by the Gallery’ Creative Workshop for some hands-on fun. You’ll have a chance to explore color, line and form with paint or pastels and develop your ideas with a little help from an artist/instructor form the Workshop. For all ages.

ART CLASSES
At the Gallery’s Creative Workshop, adults can take one or both installments of “Georgia on my Mind,” a Thursday morning class that explores drawing (October); and painting (November). And teens will enjoy “Painterly Photos and Photographic Paintings,” a hands-on class painting and photography class inspired by O’Keeffe’s work and that of her husband, Alfred Stieglitz. It meets Saturday mornings or afternoons throughout the fall.
