Landscape Painting Workshop aged 8+

Join local Artist and Musician Carol Wilson from the ArtSea Collective and learn the basics of landscape painting on Saturday 30th September 2023 at 3pm - 4pm at Rathmullan Pier. This step by step tutorial aimed at young people aged 8+ will demonstrate a range of acrylic painting techniques to enable you to create your very own original landscape painting to take away.

No previous experience required and all materials will be provided. However, please note you will be working with acrylic paints so wear clothes you don't mind getting paint on or bring an apron.

The workshop will take place in a pop-up marquee beside the ArtSea shop at the pier in Rathmullan. Spaces are limited so to secure a place, please book early by signing up through Eventbrite. Once you have registered we will be back in touch with further information.

This newly established partnership brings both organisations together to explore opportunities for cross-border collaboration between similarly focused regeneration, development and social enterprise groups north and south.

The project is being supported by the International Fund for Ireland under the Communities in Partnership Programme and fits with the theme of community Innovation and creating the conditions necessary for the development of social enterprise and innovation for participating groups.
