Community Painting: Celebrating America’s 250th
Join us at the Dartmouth Cultural Center for a free community painting event celebrating the 250th anniversary of the United States.
Participants of all ages are invited to create an individual red, white and blue painting that will become part of a larger collaborative artwork. Each finished piece should fit within a 1.5-by-1.5-foot or 2-by-2-foot section of the overall canvas.
Canvas, paints and brushes will be provided. Participants are encouraged to bring a rough sketch or idea for their painting.
Saturday, August 8
11:00 AM–2:00 PM
Dartmouth Cultural Center
404 Elm Street, Dartmouth
This event is free, but advance registration is required so that we can prepare enough materials for everyone.
Instructor Bio
Lana Quann is a self taught watercolorist from New Bedford. She earned her BA in Art History from the University of Massachusetts, Dartmouth and has studied a variety of mediums. In 2018, after a 30years hiatus from art she picked up her brushes again, this time teaching herself the complex yet magical art of watercolor. Through persistence and encouragement she created 'The
Wandering Brush' where she shares her love for the magic of watercolor art in an everyday, simplified way experimenting with a variety of pigments, papers and brushes. She believes art is for everyone and puts aside the label of "fine art" to bring fun, exploration and playfulness to both her work and classrooms
