Sunflower

Gather up your painting supplies, grab a glass of wine, and paint with us from home!  Learn the basic techniques of watercolor painting with Roycroft Campus artist-in-residence, Kateri Ewing, as we create a beautiful sunflower, the national flower of Ukraine.

Space is limited and registration is required.

Half of the proceeds from this event will be donated to World Central Kitchen, a nonprofit organization working to provide meals in response to humanitarian, climate, and community crises.
