We’re looking for 5 women and 4 men to bring this hilarious story to life on stage…we know the right players are just waiting in the wings!

20-Minute Still Life Collaborative Painting

We’re thrilled to join Gallery Mostaza in their Harper location for their Second Saturday-on Sand Creek event! We’ll be on the patio with a 20-Minute Still Life Painting Project…but with a twist! Sit down with 3 other painters, and take 5 minutes to sketch your view. Then we switch spots, painting each other’s canvas for 5 minutes. When you return to your original canvas, a unique masterpiece is there waiting for you! This creative way of approaching a still life painting makes it fun and low-pressure — we hope you come try it out!
