Sun Catchers with the MFA
Wednesday, Aug. 5, 11 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. ET
Summer is here and the sun is shining! Join us as we explore the beauty of the sun. We’ll view a collection of artwork featuring the sun at the Museum of Fine Arts, then we’ll make our own sun catchers to embrace the sun’s creative brilliance.
Watercolor Workbook
Tuesday, Aug. 25, 11 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. ET
This August, we'll slow down and explore color mixing, gradients, and texture through a bird-themed watercolor workbook. This gentle creative practice offers an opportunity to build confidence, learn new techniques, and enjoy the restorative process of painting. With softly outlined sketches, step-by-step guidance, and helpful color-mixing tips, the workshop encourages personal expression, reflection, and creative exploration. Its portable format also makes it easy to continue painting at home or on the go!
