TILTON — McQuade Fine Arts will hold two watercolor painting courses designed to inspire creativity and build skills in a supportive, in-person environment. Classes will be held at the Lakes Region Art Gallery in the Tanger Outlets.
Led by juried artist Stephanie C. McQuade, these hands-on sessions offer aspiring and continuing artists the opportunity to explore the vibrant world of watercolor in a fun and welcoming setting.
Watercolor for Beginners — This five-week course is for absolute beginners with no prior experience needed. Participants will receive step-by-step guidance to master foundational techniques. Sessions run Tuesdays from 10 a.m. to noon, starting Jan. 20.
