Senior Science: Painting on the Green

Start summer with an outdoor painting session inspired by nature.

Join us on The Green for a relaxed and social morning to fuel your creativity. Bring artwork you’ve started at home or let your surroundings spark your imagination for a new piece. Local artists will talk about their processes, share examples of their work and answer questions about techniques and materials.

We’ll provide paints, canvases and other supplies, while providing a scenic backdrop sure to get the creativity flowing. Don’t let the word “painting” scare you off—in our eyes, we’re all artists! Go on an artistic adventure!
