Five days making art in the prettiest city on earth. No instruction, no skill required, no one grading you. Just show up and make something.
A small group spends five days sketching in the parks, painting by the Seine, and chasing color around Paris, with group dinners, walking tours, and a couple of nights out. Nobody's teaching. You just make stuff. The point is the doing, not the masterpiece.
No skill needed for any of them. Just show up and try. Here's everything you'll get your hands on:
Handpicked hotel, shared room, walkable to everything.
Canvas, easels, paint, brushes, aprons. We buy it, you keep what you make.
The city from the water, at golden hour.
Every morning after you arrive (day one, you're flying in, so the welcome dinner is your first meal with us). Lunches are on your own.
A welcome dinner, a farewell dinner, and an evening picnic on the Champ de Mars. The other nights are yours to explore.
Le Marais & Montmartre, with guides.
An oil figure-painting class (ballerina + tower) and an acrylic paint & sip under the sparkling tower. All materials included.
Two low-key group activities. No winners, just fun.
A group morning at the Petit Palais: Courbet, Monet, Cézanne, in a stunning Beaux-Arts setting.
Performance art, Paris-style, plus a night out. All included.
Fly in on your own schedule, check in, shake off the jet lag on a loose evening stroll. Then a welcome dinner in the Marais to meet everyone.
A walking tour through Le Marais and its hidden courtyards. Free afternoon. A golden-hour Seine cruise under the Eiffel Tower, then a classic Paris cabaret show: performance art the way the city does it best, included.
Your morning is yours after breakfast: sleep in, wander, or go explore the Louvre on your own. In the afternoon, an oil figure-painting session at Trocadéro: a ballerina poses with the tower behind her while you paint. Then after dark we set up on the Champ de Mars for a paint & sip: acrylic, wine in hand, painting the Eiffel Tower as it sparkles.
A group morning at the Petit Palais, the City of Paris fine-arts museum: Courbet, Monet, Cézanne, in a gorgeous, uncrowded Beaux-Arts palace. Then up to Montmartre: break into teams, each chasing a different color through the streets with your cameras (no winners, just a fun way to really see the place), then a walking tour of the old artists' quarter. In the evening, a group picnic on the Champ de Mars: wine, bread, and a blanket while the Eiffel Tower sparkles. Included.
Sketch the Tuileries with the Louvre behind us, then the throwdown: everyone lays their sketchbooks out and we share the lot. A farewell dinner to close it out.
Optional sketch-and-coffee for the early risers, then out on your own flights.
