Join River Gallery School teaching artist Kate Milliken for a series of hands-on art workshops held in the beautiful North Barn at Retreat Farm. These gatherings invite participants to slow down, connect, and explore creative expression in a warm, welcoming environment. Each class offers a different way to experience art—through observation, experimentation, and play—while enjoying the peaceful surroundings of Retreat Farm. No prior art experience is needed; just bring curiosity and a willingness to explore.
Basic supplies will be provided. The North Barn bar will be open for drinks and pizza during each session starting at 5pm.
Enroll in all four sessions and receive a $20 discount! All are welcome; children under 12 need to be accompanied by an adult except where noted.
Space is limited to 15 people per class and advanced registration is strongly encouraged.
FEBRUARY 26 - SCULPTING FROM THE FIGURE
Join Kate Milliken for an evening of sculpting the human form in three dimensions. Working from a live (clothed) model, participants will explore gesture, proportion, and form using a variety of sculptural materials. Alongside self-drying clay, you’ll experiment with wire, yarn, pipe cleaners, and paper—materials that can be shaped, twisted, and attached to simple armatures to build mass, movement, and expression in the figure. This relaxed, supportive class encourages creativity and discovery, offering a fun and freeing way to see the human form anew.
