All Skill Levels Welcome

Meet artist Susan Darwin at her Fairhaven Town Center art exhibit, in beautiful Fairhaven Center (29 Center Street), and hear her talk about what inspired her latest series, The East Coast Paintings. Ask the artist questions about what inspired the huge lobster, the one-clawed blue crab, the sand shark, two conch shells, or the several land/seascapes of Newfoundland, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New York and Florida. Then, venture the short distance to the Art Loft Studio (7 Water Street) for a creative workshop based on the exhibit using natural objects, photos, drawings and memory as reference.

The session is suitable for all-ages and includes drawing, painting and gluing with artist-grade materials. Each participant will be able to select an art card from the exhibit and will take home their unique archival piece of art that will last a lifetime… and then some.

Limited to 16 participants | Additional sessions will be added if needed.

Children are welcome and must be accompanied by an adult.
