“BY YOUR HAND” – Art Retreats

Cast caution to the wind and explore the artist within you!

Novices and “want to be” artists can enjoy the opportunity to expand their horizons in the art field with Deborrah Hughes-Gahr as your coach. Enjoy this creative experience in the sumptuous surroundings of a Canada Select 4½ Star Bed and Breakfast.

The art retreats, aptly named, “By Your Hand”, are designed especially for the adult beginner. Media can include acrylic painting, pencil/charcoal sketching or art cards. Choose a one day or full weekend program. Maximum class size is 6 people – private one-on-one instruction is also available.

All materials are supplied and instruction is complete and comprehensive.

The retreats include:

	Two night’s accommodation with full gourmet breakfast each morning.  Lunch and supper is also included on Saturday.
	Check in on Friday evening and meet with the Deborrah to review your weekend project.  Enjoy a leisurely breakfast on Saturday morning and spend the remainder of the day expanding your horizons as you learn more about the medium you have chosen to work with. Didn’t complete your project?  Don’t worry! Deborrah is just a phone call away and is ready to offer advice.

Package cost is $395 per person, based on double occupancy (includes taxes and lunch and supper on Saturday); $425 per person based on single occupancy (includes taxes and lunch and supper on Saturday).

Check in Friday evening 6:30 pm – 7:00 pm; check-out on Sunday by 4:00 pm.
