A Botanical Salon: Drawing, Flowers & Wine

June 6th- 6pm-8pm

$60 + $15 material fee

Unwind with a glass in hand during this relaxed, two-hour studio experience inspired by Jane Colden, America’s first female botanist from the Hudson Valley. This welcoming class blends art, history, and nature in a social, low-pressure setting—no drawing experience needed.

Participants will learn how to press flowers and leaves, then explore two historic inks: oak gall ink, prized for its deep, expressive line, and walnut ink, known for its warm, earthy tones. Using gentle guidance, participants will create botanical drawings that highlight the shapes, textures, and quiet beauty of plant forms.

With time to sip, sketch, and connect, this slow art evening invites you to experiment, relax, and enjoy the process. Bring your favorite beverage and settle into a thoughtful night of artmaking inspired by centuries-old traditions.
