For our in-person workshops, you'll enjoy individual workstations, an HD camera/large screen TV monitor for demonstrations, discounts on lodging and art supplies in our outlet store, and a vacation in the magical Blue Ridge Mountains. If you can't make it in person, we invite you to take one of our premier online art workshops from the comfort of your home studio. Participate in live, interactive classes from anywhere worldwide with internet service, and/or watch the recorded video later. You'll interact with some of the most popular artist instructors through your computer screen and gain access to the class recordings for further study.
