Art with the Masters: Tony Pettis
Join us at The Columbus Museum for a night of art and inspiration as local artist Tony Pettis shows us a thing or two on expressionist painting. Tony will share a history of the style and discuss how he came to become an artist, and then guide the class on making their own painting they can take home. There will be light hors d’oeuvres and libations, and the supplies and materials will be provided. No prior skill is required to participate. Seats are limited so be sure to register soon!
$35 for Museum members // $50* for future members
*Future members can use $15 of their event fee towards the purchase of any Museum membership level, excluding Civic Level membership.
