Washington Printmakers Gallery: Wednesday, July 8 to 29 from 6:30 to 8:30 P.M.
Have you ever wondered how and why the impressionist painted the way they did?&nbsp;
Would you like to learn to paint like an impressionist yourself?
Around the turn of the 20th century, there were dramatic changes in the art world. Where previous generations of artists once favored rigid techniques and spending thousands of hours in studios glazing hundreds of layers of paint, now artists aspired to create more immediate paintings and tried to more directly capture the world they saw.
This class, meant for students at all skill levels, will start from the ground up teaching students how to mix colors like the impressionists and introduce students to various techniques that evolved in the late 1800s and early 1900s.
All supplies are included with the class as students will be encouraged to try out different paints, brushes, and other painting materials throughout the class.&nbsp;
Syllabus
Week 1: Basics of composition
Week 2: Blending Color
Week 3: Breaking down paintings into achievable steps
Week 4: Finishing Painting!
Adult, all skill levels
 Participants 9
$200
Supplies: All supplies included

Washington Printmakers Gallery: Sunday, July 12, 2026 from 12:00 pm to 4:00 pm &nbsp;
Collage is one of the most freewheeling and immediately satisfying art forms — all you need is paper, scissors, and a willingness to see what happens when things come together in unexpected ways. In this hands-on workshop, we’ll explore collage as a serious artistic medium, building layered compositions from found and personal materials. You’ll leave with one or more finished pieces and a set of techniques you can keep exploring on your own. Come with whatever inspires you — vintage maps, sheet music, decorative papers, magazine clippings, old drawings, unfinished artwork, wrapping paper, book pages. The more varied your materials, the more surprising your results. Not sure what to bring? Don’t worry — a generous selection of papers, maps, and printed materials will be provided. We’ll work on prepared surfaces and use acrylic medium for adhesion, with additional textures and embellishments available to add depth and dimension to your work. Level: All levels welcome, ages 13 and up No experience required — just an eye for what you find beautiful, interesting, or worth a second look.
Class size: 6 Fee: $100 + $15 materials fee paid directly to instructor
Materials provided by instructor: X-acto knives, cutting mats, acrylic medium, brushes, substrate papers, additional papers and ephemera, textures and embellishments. Materials fee: $15 paid to instructor (Zelle/Venmo/cash preferred). Students bring: Papers, images, or materials that inspire you — vintage, decorative, personal, or found

HIGHLINE RxR

<a href="https://www.profsandpints.com/washingtondc" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Profs and Pints Northern Virginia</a> presents: “Folktales of Summer Forests,” with
 Brittany Warman, former instructor at Ohio State University and 
co-founder of the Carterhaugh School of Folklore and the Fantastic.
Unique folklore emerges from the summer months, when the sun burns 
hot and nature bursts with full, lush beauty. Some of this lore is 
strange, some of it tragic, and some as beautiful as sunlight through 
branches.
Wander deep into the folklore of summer with Brittany Warman of the 
Carterhaugh School, an extraordinary educational organization which has 
earned a large and loyal following among Profs and Pints fans with its 
captivating talks on folktales, fairy tales, legends, and myths.
We’ll look at why the forest stands as the perfect setting for 
enchantment and mystery. It’s by turns a place of shade and rest and a 
place of uncertainty and fear. It can be dangerous, bountiful, tame, or 
wild. It shelters witches, fairies, monsters, and more under its 
branches.
From the forest come the legends of the illusive Green Man, the king 
of the woods. Also told are stories of sacred trees, hidden dances, and 
fairies who engage in midsummer abductions. Fairy tales like “The Witch 
in the Woods” and “The White Deer” tell of hidden doorways, magic rings,
 and cursed princesses.
Let Dr. Warman guide you through magical forests and you’ll emerge 
seeing the wonder in every leaf, stream, and wildflower. (<a href="https://events.ticketleap.com/tickets/profsandpints/nv-summer-forests" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Advance tickets</a>: $13.50 plus sales tax and processing fees. Doors: $17, or $15 
with a student ID. Listed time is for doors. Talk starts 30 minutes 
later.)&nbsp;&nbsp;
