Price: $35
Spots: 6
Ages: 13+
Class Minimum: 3
Deadline to sign up: Monday, November 17th
Refund policy: No refund past deadline date
Pour painting is so much fun and really doesn’t require much skill or effort to accomplish such amazing, abstract pieces of art! Each student will get two 11″x14″ canvases to learn a couple of different pour painting techniques on.
There is no experience required for this class, and all materials will be provided. Pour painting can be messy, so please dress in something you wouldn’t mind getting acrylic paint on because accidents happen sometimes.
Make sure to reserve your spots as soon as you know you can come. You can reserve your spots through our website, in person at the shoppe, or via email invoice.
Please note that each spot is only good for ONE person. If you want to bring another individual (someone to assist you, a child, etc.), please contact us to see if that’s okay BEFORE signing up.
*The class time is an approximate range. Each class duration depends on the amount of participants signed up and the pace at which each person learns.
**Pieces will have wet paint for a while when class is over, so please bring something to safely transport pieces or plan on coming back another day to pick them up when they’re dry.
