On Saturday, August 26, 2023 from 1:00-4:00 pm, Hoosic River Revival (HRR) is hosting a Plein-air Watercolor Painting Workshop with local artist Corry Buckwalter along the South Branch of the Hoosic River at Noel Field.

The event will include a demonstration, instruction and feedback from Buckwalter in a setting that takes in the natural beauty of the Hoosic River and the surrounding area, and will end with a reception that will include group sharing of paintings. Both novice and experienced painters of all ages are welcome to participate!

Registration is required. Attending the workshop costs $10 per person (plus online processing fee), which includes all materials.
