Come let the brilliance of Saskatchewan’s boreal forest inspire your creative spirit. forestART offers you four days to completely immerse yourself in your own art practice – in a medium you are versed in, or something completely new! Step out of your day-to-day to find a community of like-minded creatives.
Class sizes are restricted to a maximum of 6-10 dependant on class so you receive incredible one on one instruction.
Classes are held outdoors under shaded structures to ensure you are fully immersed with Nature.
