Join us for a festive canvas painting class at Chestnut Center for the Arts with a local artist. You’ll learn to paint a spooky jack-o-lantern just in time for Halloween! This class, designed for an 8" x 10" canvas, starts with creating a neutral background using black and white paints. You’ll then shape your pumpkin with black outlines and bring it to life with three distinct shades of orange. Add a personal touch by painting a face of your choice and enhancing your artwork with swirly, creeping black vines for an extra spooky effect. All painting supplies will be provided, and our local artist will guide you step-by-step in creating a Halloween masterpiece that you'll be proud to display!
