Winter Art Workshops: Figure Drawing

Join River Gallery School teaching artist Kate Milliken for a series of hands-on art workshops held in the beautiful North Barn at Retreat Farm. These gatherings invite participants to slow down, connect, and explore creative expression in a warm, welcoming environment. Each class offers a different way to experience art—through observation, experimentation, and play—while enjoying the peaceful surroundings of Retreat Farm. No prior art experience is needed; just bring curiosity and a willingness to explore.

Basic supplies will be provided. The North Barn bar will be open for drinks and pizza during each session starting at 5pm.

Enroll in all four sessions and receive a $20 discount! All are welcome; children under 12 need to be accompanied by an adult except where noted.

Space is limited to 15 people per class and advanced registration is strongly encouraged.

MARCH 19 - FIGURE DRAWING

Enjoy an expressive evening of figure drawing in the North Barn with Kate Milliken. Working from a live (clothed) model, participants will use charcoal, pencils, and conté to explore both quick gesture poses—1, 2, and 3 minutes—and longer studies of 15 to 20 minutes. The focus is on rhythm, proportion, and the energy of the human form. This class offers a friendly, no-pressure environment perfect for beginners and returning artists alike.
