Watercolor Painting
Led by Sherry Graf, who has been painting watercolors and teaching for over 5 years. Her classes are tailored for beginners. Spend 2 hours learning to watercolor with step by step instruction. The cost is $29 which includes all supplies, plus a coupon for a handcrafted coffee drink from our Glen Eyrie Cafe.
Each participant will leave with their painting. Children 12 and older are welcome with a paying adult.
Cell Phone Photography
Almost everyone has a cell phone, but how many of us know how to take good photos with it? This 90 minute class is designed to help those who desire to take their photography skills to the next level. It will start with 20-30 minutes of basic instruction, and then you will walk around the property with the instructor and learn to take great photos at several picturesque locations.
Our instructor is Sidney Teel, who is an artist and photographer currently enrolled in the Visual Arts program at the University of Colorado.
The cost of the class is $15, and includes one drink from our Glen Eyrie cafe.
