As a licensed teacher, experienced art instructor, outdoor educator, and community arts facilitator, I'm thrilled to offer a variety of artistic workshops and field excursions in community spaces, wild places and more. 

Paint-alongs are two hour acrylic painting events led by me, Katie Fenerty, professional artist and art educator. These events encourage beginners and creatives alike to unwind, socialize, and engage in something out of the ordinary. You’ll leave the event with a finished painting, new painting skills, and some great memories!
