STEAM-tastic: Monet-Inspired Bridge Workshop (All Ages)

Explore the science of color and light through the art of Claude Monet, one of the founding fathers of Impressionism. In this hands-on, STEAM-integrated workshop, attendees will use oil pastels and watercolors to create their own artworks inspired by Monet’s gardens at Giverny.

Participants will learn how color theory, perception, and artistic technique come together to create shimmering, light-filled scenes. Through layering, optical blending, and the interaction of oil and water-based media, attendees will experiment with the similar tools and visual effects that defined the Impressionist movement.

Perfect for all ages and experience levels, including children under 12. All materials are included in the supply fee.

– Come join us at Del Ray Artisans for interactive classes about Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math (STEAM), taught by professionals from each field!
