Festive and relaxing painting workshop in a wooden cabin in the peaceful surrounds of Festina Lente's historic walled garden
About this Event

Join local artist Rosie Keane for this festive and relaxing painting workshop in a wooden cabin in the peaceful surrounds of Festina Lente's historic walled garden.

Absolutely no experience required – this is a welcoming and friendly workshop for all levels. Rosie will guide you step-by-step on how to create your own version of this atmospheric 'Winter Robin' painting in acrylics, with special tips & tricks along the way.
Tickets include a 2.5 hour step-by-step class and a 10-minute tea break with refreshments in the Festina Lente Cafe. Plus access to the beautiful walled gardens and gift shop.
All equipment is provided, including A3 canvas, aprons, paints and brushes, etc.
Your canvas will have some core elements pre-drawn for ease so that you can get on with the fun part – playing with paint, texture and colour!
A "Connect with the Winter Robin" activity as a warm up to the session will be offered - to activate creative juices, with Social and Therapeutic Horticulturist, Dr Sinead O'Connor.
This workshop is for adults 18+ (though 16+ very welcome if accompanied by an adult)
It's a lovely activity to do with a friend or family member, but equally as enjoyable to do solo.
Come for creative relaxation and festive fun, and go home with a masterpiece!
