FRIDAY, JANUARY 16 5:30pm - 10:00pm
If your New Years Resolutions include learning how to relax, channel your inner energy and get your creative juices flowing. this novel combination of yoga and acrylic painting is for you! A variation on the hugely popular "paint-and-sips" springing up across the country, this creative evening will leave your body, mind and spirit feeling refreshed, plus give you a finished painting to take home at the end of your experience! Veteran yoga instructor/artist Karen Bliss-Reid will lead participants in stretching and relaxation exercises that can be used again and again to center individuals on tapping their inner stream of creativity.
Once you're all loosened up, focused and have a break for some healthy drinks and hors d'oeuvres, Mrs. B, Cheryl Bielli of Mrs. B's Petite Galerie & Studio, will lead you in a guided acrylic painting lesson which promises lots of laughs and a sense of wonder and accomplishment at what you can produce in a couple of hours. (Mrs. B loves people who come in saying, "I can't even draw a stick figure" because they surely don't leave that way!) A great way to try something new in the New Year! Reservations and a $10 deposit are a MUST. Deadline for reservations is Jan. 5 by calling Cheryl Bielli at 725-6130. Limit 10 participants per session. One additional cardio-sip-n-paint featuring Zumba is scheduled for Jan. 23.
Mrs. B's Petite Galerie & Studio is located at 26 North Main Street next to the Mohawk Harvest Co-op in Gloversville.
