Join us for watercolor painting classes with Jessica Lily in-person, held locally in Decatur, GA. We are working on local wildlife and botanicals, native to our Metro-Atlanta Woodlands ecosystem. Come play with the magic of watercolors with us, and join our community as we release expectations, and let the water do the work! We will be painting with local artist, Jessica Lily. The instructor will guide the group through a step-by-step method.
Enjoy our comfortable, indoor setting at a gorgeous venue – bring a mug for some warm tea. We will also just hang out, talk shop and learn from each other as we move through our paintings together.
No experience necessary! This class is built to give beginners an easy process for a lovely, meditative painting. This class is also great for more intermediate and advanced painters, as we will all learn from each other and incorporate our own unique creativity into our paintings.

FREE Inclusive Homeschool Nature Enrichment Class in the Decatur/Toco Hills area! February 21st from 10am-12pm for ages 5-11.

In honor of Jewish Disabilities, Awareness, Acceptance, and Inclusion Month, we are offering a free homeschool nature enrichment class that will explore the values of environmental stewardship while building community. This class is free thanks to generous support from the Jewish Abilities Atlanta. Hike the trails, gather and build with nature items, and explore nature through the lens of bayit (home), and kehilla (community), in this inclusive class for neurodivergent learners.

While inspired by the Jewish values of bayit (home), kehilla (community), and caring for the earth, this class is open to all and is designed as an interfaith, multicultural experience.
