Last chance to register for our upcoming October workshops!

Wallkill River Center for the Arts founder Shawn Dell Joyce is teaching two classes this October. Come learn from the artist who started it all!

On October 8, learn a paint by numbers approach to painting your furry friend, and on October 10, head outdoors for a plein air painting experience and take in the beauty of the fall season.

Whether you’re looking to try something new, build your skills, or just spend some time creating, these workshops are a great way to do it. Reserve your spot before registration closes!

Elizabeth Keithline | MEET THE ARTIST and solve the puzzle!
Saturday, September 12th, 2 pm

Elizabeth Keithline is at Wallkill River Center for the Arts on Saturday, September 12, 2:00 PM, where she will casually discuss her solo exhibition, Puzzle – while working on a puzzle! This exhibit and the accompanying group show, Keep It Together, present assemblage artworks using found paint and materials. Both exhibitions examine how people create systems of order out of chaos, solve problems, and navigate life’s challenges through the metaphor of repurposed materials.
