Color and creativity come together, yet again, in this exciting workshop designed for young artists aged 8-12. 

This kids' watercolor workshop expands on previous lessons, instructed by teaching-artist Jean Vandervaart, by introducing the technique of negative (space) painting to achieve unique Cryptid and Spirit-themed works of art. 

Negative painting is a method in which the background is painted dark, allowing the lighter color to appear as the design or "positive" shape.  

Whether a budding artist or someone who just loves to get creative, this class offers a supportive and inspiring environment for all skill levels. We invite kids to expand their imagination with watercolor!  Supplies/materials are included with registration.

REGISTRATION for this class CLOSES @ 5:00 pm on Friday, October 3rd.

For Ages 14+ (those under age 18 must be accompanied by an adult) 

Experience the magic of pour painting, a unique technique where vibrant colors flow freely onto the canvas. Participants are encouraged to choose three colors of their liking and let their creativity soar. They can enhance their masterpieces with glitter, silicone, oil, or foil for an extra touch of sparkle and depth. The possibilities are endless, and the process is fun and free-spirited.

In this workshop, students will create their unique painting on an 8” x 10” canvas. Due to the nature of the materials, completed paintings will be left to dry and available for pick-up after two days, during The Dairy Barn’s regular hours Tuesday-Friday 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM, and Saturday-Sunday 12:00 PM - 5:00 PM.

Teaching Artist, Savannah Fish, has experience teaching individuals with diverse abilities, and creating an inclusive learning environment. She invites you to discover the joy of creating beautiful art together!

For Ages 16+

Join Teaching Artist and current Dairy Barn exhibitor, Holly Cole, for this one-day dyeing adventure!  In this workshop, students will explore the technique of Ice dyeing- a process that’s a sure-fire way to encourage dye colors to “split”,  yielding a beautiful range of color on cloth.   

During the Process of Ice dyeing, ice is placed on top of fabric, and dye is sprinkled over the ice; as the ice melts, the dye dissolves and spreads across the fabric, creating a marbled, speckled, or watercolor effect.  A range of spectacular patterns and effects are achieved through compressing fabric in different ways. 

Whether you clamp, tie, wrap, crumple, or fold, you’ll marvel at the results!
