If your New Year’s resolution was to make more art, you can take seminars with Ane Carla Rovetta (pastels), Penny Otwell (oil painting), Andie Thrams (watercolors), and Hannah Hinchman (illuminated field journals), whose welcoming seminars encourage creativity and make art accessible to even the most hesitant.
