SUMMER SESSIONS
Group ART PODS
YOUR OWN PRIVATE ART POD
We’ll create a custom art workshop for your friends or family, designed for small groups of two to eight persons, with subject matter and the media of your choice. Our ART PODS combine exciting hands-on creation in the great outdoors at your home or a nearby scenic location, and we know the very best with over six years hosting art events in Sullivan County Catskills.
Sessions are 2.5 hours, plus setup, with all gear and art materials included.
