The Maurice River School

Workshop Information

Class dates for 2012 are July 15 - 21, 2012

9:00 am – Daily (Monday through Friday).

Participants gather by the pond at The Barn Studio of Art with their painting materials and French easels. Each day a demonstration by one of the instructors will be given either at The Barn Studio pond or on location along the Maurice River. This will be followed by individual working time on location.

Daily locations will be determined by weather and working conditions. We will be working “en plein air” most of the time. Be prepared!
