Classes
Our instructors are local established artists working in many mediums such as watercolor, acrylics, mixed media, and more.
Classes are intimate small group settings. We value individual artistic expression.
​
Participants do not ‘copy,’ but instead, use an experimental approach as they incorporate new techniques to create works of art.
Decadent Gifts and Gallery will be offering a variety of Art Classes and Art Talks in our After-Hours Series.
Classes and Art Talks usually meet on Tuesday or Thursday evenings or Saturday afternoons and are held at Decadent Gifts and Gallery.
Larger events hosted by Decadent Gifts and Gallery may be offered at a different location, such as the BrewProjekt.
​
With small class sizes, events sell out quickly, so check back often for new offerings.
