Upcoming Classes and Workshops

Fruit Tree 101 with Wesley Crump of USU

$35.00

Wesley Crump is a USU Extension Assistant Professor in Wasatch and Summit counties focused on horticulture. We'll go over fruit tree selection, planting, and general care. We want to take the fear out of growing fruit trees!

Saturday, June 8th, 10-11:30am, at the garden (4056 Shadow Mountain Drive)

Intuitive Painting with Caro Nilsson

$45.00

This event will be a guided journey through intuitive painting, a method of art creation that centers on connection with self, presence, memory, sensation, and feeling. You will explore how feeling can be prioritized over the fact of how something looks, and how experimentation can be chosen over control. Over time, you will watch your pieces unfold and reveal themselves--a conversation between painter and painting. You will create work while learning tools and processes for creation as well as the relationship between color, form, and perception. Within these processes, endless variation and experimentation will happen.

Learn more about Caro Nilsson through her website here.

Thursday, July 11th, 6-8pm, at the garden (4056 Shadow Mountain Drive)
