Draw in the garden with RAG Educational Staff!
Immerse yourself in the Cultural Centre’s Rooftop garden during these afternoon art workshops. Guided by artist educator Mona Lochan, these 3 hour workshops offer the opportunity to draw or paint “en plein air” using the garden plants as your subject matter. Learn to draw from observation and experiment with watercolours to play with colours and shapes in the tranquil setting.
Open to both beginners and experienced artists, combining guidance with creative freedom.
Recommended for ages 16+. Children must be accompanied by an adult participant.
RSVP is appreciated.
Free Drop in anytime between 1:00 – 4:00 pm on these dates:
