Paddle & Paint: A Creative Evening on the River
City Dock, 207 Sophia Street
Launch at 6:00 PM — please arrive early to prepare your gear
$55 per person – includes all painting supplies
Join us for an inspiring evening that blends paddling, photography, and plein air painting on the beautiful Rappahannock River. We’ll kick off our adventure at City Dock, where you’ll get your kayak or paddleboard water-ready and set up your chair in our open-air “art studio.”
Once we’re ready, we’ll paddle upstream as a group for about 45 minutes. Along the way, we’ll take time to observe and photograph the natural beauty and rich history of the river—letting our surroundings inspire our creativity.
After returning to the dock and taking a short break, we’ll gather in our outdoor studio space to share reflections, ideas, and images from the paddle. Then the painting begins! Using a reusable Altoid tin palette and acrylic paints, you’ll create a mini masterpiece on canvas. Your instructor will guide you through sketching, color mixing, and capturing your river-inspired vision.
All painting materials are provided, and you'll leave with both your artwork and your custom palette. Additional class details and preparation notes will be sent to participants by the instructor after registration.
No prior art experience needed—just a love of the outdoors and a creative spirit!
Please note: Participants must bring their own kayak or paddleboard, paddle, and U.S. Coast Guard-approved life vest. This is not a skills-based paddling class; basic paddling proficiency is required.
