The Portrait Academy Series, now in its seventh year, provides attendees with
a unique opportunity to watch, learn and talk with nationally known artists. Attendees
can choose to attend the Friday night demonstration, solely, or the two-day event format.
On Friday evening, our featured artist will demonstrate the painting process from start
to finish. A questions and answer session will follow, allowing audience members to participate
in an intimate conversation with the artist. The Friday night demonstration by an acclaimed
artist sets the stage for the all day workshop on Saturday. Attendees will set up their
easel and paint from a live model under the featured artists instruction. In addition,
portfolio reviews will be available at the end of Saturdays session in which the
participants will be offered expert advice and guidance. Availability for spaces at these
events are based on a first come, first registered basis. These programs sell out quickly
and we encourage you to register early. Once a program fills, we will establish a waiting
list.
