Rejoice in painting spring colors inspired from nature during the Watercolor Garden Party, part of the International Center for Watercolor, on Sunday, June 30, from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at 343 Crescent Avenue (corner of Elam Place). This event is free and open to the public.

Sandy Ludwig, an artist, and Mark Kerwood, a woodworker and gardener, will open their patio, porch, and front and back gardens to celebrate the art of watercolor. 

Watercolor painters from beginners to advanced are all welcome to let their paints drip, run, and bleed. Bring paints, palettes, and brushes along with a stool and easel. Find an inspirational spot and settle in. Garden party hosts will have water available for painting and treats for the painters.

The corner garden will be budding with lilies, dahlias, cannas, peonies, irises, geraniums, petunias, and other annuals and perennials. Tomatoes will be sprouting along with Swiss chard, eggplant, zucchini, peas, and greens. 

For further information about the garden party or the International Center for Watercolor call Kathy Gaye Shiroki, curator of museum learning and community engagement, ext. 3549.
