The workshops will include various subjects from the marsh and fields, to the bays, ocean and skies.

All levels are welcome, and while primarily based on pastel, all media can be covered. The April workshop will be hosted by SOMA Gallery in Cape May, and will keep students in and around Cape May. The May workshop will start at Crow Creek Farm in Goshen and travel to scenic spots from there.
