🌈 No brushes. No rules. Just paint doing its thing.

This Monday, Jesica Carleton of is leading a special Pride Month edition of our acrylic pour workshop — and it's going to be a good one.

Fluid Art: Rainbow Acrylic Pour is exactly what it sounds like: an evening of color, flow, and happy accidents. You'll work with rainbow palettes, explore pouring and layering techniques, and create movement and cells in ways you genuinely can't plan for. That's the magic of it.

You'll leave with practice tiles AND a one-of-a-kind rainbow painting that's completely yours. Jesica makes everyone feel at ease — this is as beginner-friendly as it gets.

Wear clothes you don't mind getting paint on. Seriously.

Imagine a garden path that tells a story — one stone at a time. 🌿

In Stepping Stones, you'll learn the ancient art of mosaics while designing and casting your very own concrete stepping stone to take home. A sun, a creature, a pattern, a little world of your own — whatever calls to you. Kids ages 8 and up are welcome, so bring one if you've got one.

The workshop is led by Angela Mion, a local mixed-media artist who works with mosaic, watercolor, quilling, and assemblage, and whose practice centers on giving discarded materials new life. She's the kind of artist who makes you see creative potential in everything around you.

Come make something that lasts.
