Enjoy a full day of ART! Are you curious about different art techniques? Always wanted to learn more or a new medium? Open Art Studio is a day of hands-on workshops and demonstrations throughout the day. We have assembled the finest art professionals to give you explanations, demonstrations and techniques in various mediums that are not ordinarily available at other art schools.
