Join us on Saturday, August 29 from 10:00am - 1:00pm for a day of art in the mountains!

Inspired by the beauty of the Kootenays, this relaxing watercolour painting workshop combines creativity, nature, and hands-on learning in a stunning alpine setting. Slow down, explore watercolour techniques, and paint your own piece surrounded by mountain views and wildflowers.

Under the guidance of Josie Michaud, a talented Kootenay artist and former Whitewater Artist in Residence, you'll learn watercolour techniques while creating your own mountain and floral painting. With step-by-step instruction and plenty of individual support, you'll leave with a finished piece of artwork and a deeper appreciation for the creative process. All skill levels and abilities are welcome.

Registration for Alpine Bloom costs $70.00 and includes the following:

• 3 hours of expert instruction, demo, and assistance from Josie Michaud
• All supplies required to create a finished painting including:
  • Paper
  • Watercolour paints
  • Brushes
• A vibrant, supportive atmosphere

Come and experience the joy of painting in a stunning setting. Create, relax, and connect with your inner artist at the Hummingbird Lodge.
