Paint Your Own Masterpiece With Pageant Director At Exclusive Event

LAGUNA BEACH, CA — A popular paint-and-sip class is returning to Laguna Beach following a quickly sold-out event in 2022, after the Da Vinci Guild and the Festival of Arts announced the return of "Paint Your Own Masterpiece with the Pageant Director" on Sunday, March 12.

At the exclusive event, 25 lucky participants will take to the pageant stage to be a part of an intimate painting class led by Pageant of the Masters Director Diane Challis Davy.

Those who snag a seat will complete an acrylic painting in the post-impressionism and modern style of Vincent van Gogh's famous sunflowers.

Class participants will enjoy an offering of wine, cheese, a buffet of bites and painting.

San Diego resident Christe Auerswald said she is looking forward to the class taking place again this spring, after she participated in the sold-out 2022 class.

"I took the class with my sister last year and it was so much fun and really easy," Auerswald said. "It's incredibly special to be able to paint on the actual Pageant of the Masters stage with the Director herself teaching us."

Each ticket for the class is $150, and the class takes place on Sunday, March 12 from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. To reserve your spot today, visit the Festival of Arts website.
