“Petals in the Park” invites community members ages 8 and up to engage with Studios on the Park’s artists as they lead hands-on art workshops in printmaking, pastels, and acrylics. Anne Laddon will guide you to create a floral masterpiece in pastels, Christy Wilkins will teach you the basics of acrylic painting as you paint a mushroom wonderland, and Studios’ Printmakers will guide you step-by-step to craft your own fanciful prints. Attendees will rotate through each station, creating their own original masterpieces to take home. A delicious lunch will be catered by Chef Rachel.

Attendees are encouraged to dress in whimsical, floral fashion. Handmade hats and headbands will be available for a $25 donation to Studios beginning on May 17 to further support the organization’s mission.

Tickets for adults are $75, while children aged 8-16 are $50. Proceeds will support Studios’ Kids Art Smart and Community Arts Access programs, which bring art education and experiences to the community.
