The store's focus was obvious, but there were always at least a few art materials in the store for signwriters to layout and execute their work, but also artists oil paints and materials for their use during the off-season. After a devastating fire in the late 70s, Roena and Andy were ready to retire. They handed the reins over to Don and Kathy, who owned the store for 40 years and still work in the business today.

This experiential class led by blends gentle movement and watercolor exploration to invite balance, ease, and flow. We will briefly explore Tree Pose as a way to arrive in the body, noticing how relaxation and presence support balance. Then, using watercolor techniques such as charging and dragging, we’ll let paint move freely across the page as tree forms emerge. No yoga or art experience needed. All movement is optional and adaptable.
Registrations are open now.
