May 22 -26 YOSEMITE!


Classes in Yosemite National Park

    From Tuesday, May 22 to Saturday, May 26, 2012. Classes are from 9:30 – 2 PM daily.  Meet at    

    the Art Activity and Education Center building just to the right as you face the Yosemite    

    Village Store.  I will take everyone to a different location every day. Blooming dogwood at its    

    peak, wild azaleas bursting, and abundant waterfalls will be our painting subjects. At this

    posting, the Yosemite Conservancy is asking for a $5.00 donation per day for lessons; all

    money collected stays in the Center to keep it active.  My Yosemite paintings, prints and cards

    will be for sale; a percentage of all sales stay with the Yosemite Conservancy and the Center.
