Join us for a Paint & Sip at our office to help you shake off the winter cold and gear up for spring! Artist and teacher Patrice Jarvis-Weber will teach a beginner painting class appropriate for adults as well as children 10 and up. This year’s class will draw inspiration from Georgia O’Keefe’s “Lake George” (formerly “Reflection Seascape” 1912). Registration is required.

Register Here!

Complimentary wine will be provided for the adults thanks to Adirondack Winery  and hot chocolate will be available for the kids!

The class will last about 1.5-2 hours and participants will take home a finished piece of art using acrylic paints on an 8″ x 10″ stretched canvas. The class size will be limited to 15 people and the cost is $20 per person, covering all materials and painting supplies.
