Starting in April, we are excited to introduce Art Babies with Claudia Brauer! Do you want to have the best playdate ever while learning how to do some fantastic process based art projects with your baby or toddler? In this sensory and experience based art class you and your child will have a blast dumping, pouring, shaking, mixing and painting. We will work with taste-safe paint, drawing and mark making tools, playdough, mixed media, and more. Art activities include 2-3 art stations for your toddler as well as 1-2 sensory bins (play with clay, sand, rice, ice, water, water beads etc.) Register today for one session or all at http://www.weehawkenarts.org!

Make sure to reserve your spot in the upcoming mixed media workshop "Big A$$ Mountains" with Kellie Day in Ridgway on March 23 and 24. We live by all these gorgeous mountains, and are inspired by them every day, so why not paint them? Join Colorado mixed media artist Kellie Day in this weekend workshop. Learn to approach a large canvas with your full spirit, and playfully create your own large-scale mountain painting for you own home. We’ll begin by making gel plate prints to create our own collage papers with rich textures and colors. Then learn to plan out a big painting and jump right in. Kellie will guide you in getting a fun layout in your favorite colors and shapes, and use all of your fun and funky Gelli plate prints to create a non-traditional mountain painting. You’ll learn to loosen up and paint with abandon, fun and passion! Then learn to pull it all together with mixed media touches and take home a final piece of mountain artwork for your home. In the end, we’ll line them all up for one huge San Juan mountain range!

Who is excited for summer art? We have great visiting instructor workshops on the horizon, beginning in June with Elizabeth St. Hilaire's "Paper Plumage: Birds and Blooms" mixed media collage workshop on June 21-23. Register today to guarantee your spot at http://www.weehawkenarts.org!

We had a great time today at the 1st ever Weehawken Family Gingerbread House Decorating workshops in Montrose! The island of candy was awesome!
