More advanced students are welcome to use this time to practice what they already know and try new tricks! After creating about 1-3 pieces, we will dry and fire their pieces for them.

Let’s Paint Strawberries & Collage Vintage Papers! 🍓

Join us for an afternoon of creativity. In this hands-on class, you’ll create your own strawberry filled artwork on a 6” x 6” wood canvas. We’ll begin by painting sweet, vibrant strawberries — playful, imperfect, and full of charm — and then will layer in beautiful vintage papers featuring women and/or children. Each piece becomes a story and a small work of art that’s entirely your own.

No experience needed — just come as you are.

DATE: June 20, 2026

TIME: 3:00pm - 5:30pm

LOCATION: Art Source Gallery, 1516 West Grove Street, Boise, Idaho

WHAT’S INCLUDED:
• 6” x 6” wood canvas
• Acrylic paints
• A curated selection of vintage papers
• All tools and materials needed to make a beautiful piece of art
• Gentle guidance and creative encouragement

This is a class to slow down, create freely, and connect with other people in a warm and welcoming environment. Whether you’re brand new to art or have been creating for years, you’ll leave with something meaningful (and a little strawberry sweetness in your hands). 💛
