Join artist Marisa Pahl for an evening of meditative painting, inspired by our neighbour the Bigleaf Maple tree. We’ll practice the art of noticing and explore painting as a way to tune into the present moment.  

In this watercolour workshop, participants will experience some guided, meditative painting and be invited to reflect on their own individual relationships with native plants and trees. Participants will be given a brief introduction to the Bigleaf Maple through an artist’s lens.  

This workshop is part of an ongoing series hosted by community partners, where a different coastal tree of the Salish Sea is featured each time. The MOV’s collaboration with Marisa is partly inspired by our exhibition, That Which Sustains Us.  

Date: Thursday, November 16, 2023    

Time: 6:00-8:00pm

Tickets: $35 (plus fees and taxes). Includes admission to the museum before the workshop!
