Saturday Artist Workshops

(Painting by Maria Nemchuk)

Our Saturday Artist Workshops continue in 2024!

The GHAA has held Saturday Artist Workshops under the mentorship of Mark Hayden for over 30 years! They are held 9am until noon on the 2nd and 4th Saturdays of each month in the hall behind the First Church of Christ on Bradford Common. All ages, all levels, all mediums are welcome. Drop in - no registration required. Work on portraiture (live model provided) or still life (setup provided). A $5 contribution is requested and appreciated.

Mark Hayden, a Copley Master and art teacher, circulates and offers guidance one-on-one, without pressure. Set up your easel, work at a table, on your lap, or on the floor. Young and old enjoy the camaraderie and support of fellow artists. Bring your own materials; chairs and tables are available.

Want a bit of immortality (and a $25 stipend) by serving as a portrait model? No experience needed! Register for a sitting HERE.
