Our summer class schedule is being uploaded to our website now! We continue to offer a complete slate of classes in all of your favorite mediums. Perhaps you’re interested in trying something new? Thomas Germano is offering an en plein air workshop this month and we have special watercolor workshops from Antonio Masi and Jan Guarino this spring and summer.We have something for everyone. You can see our full list of classes here. And, if you are a fan of our watercolor department, you can travel with the Art League of Long Island and Liz Fusco to Costa Rica in 2026 – see full details here. Our next Q&A for the trip is on May 7th. We’ve added atmospheric landscapes in watercolor, junk journaling, colored pencil, graphic novel design, a Raku firing, and more workshops. We love offering you something new.
Try Nights pick up again in June and we host the Big Ink in October. Art in the Parking Lot returns in June.
