UPCOMING WORKSHOPS:

Plein Air Painting and Drawing at Sweet Olive Farm: Saturday, April 20 - 10:00 am-12:00pm
Join us at Sweet Olive Farm for a plein air painting and drawing session. 
Sweet Olive Farm Animal Rescue is a 501(c)(3) non profit organization that serves as a sanctuary for a wide variety of animals. They will be keeping you company as you work and some especially curious friends may even want to see what your supplies taste like! A magical farmhouse and a hundred year old barn amid rolling pastures will set the scene for your artistic renderings. We will be providing easels or drawing boards. Participants will need to bring along their own art supplies (canvas, paint, paper, pencils, etc.). The session will be self-directed and no demonstrations will be given. Light refreshments will be available, but please come prepared with water, sun protection, and boots that can get muddy. 

Sweet Olive Farm address:
880 Parkview Rd, Winterville, GA 30683

Glass Mosaic Workshop with Noah Lagle: Saturday, May 25 - 10:30 am-4:00pm
Join us for an exciting introduction to mosaic making. In this hands-on workshop, you will learn the fundamentals of mosaic art, from design through production. You'll be guided through the every step of the process and there is no experience necessary. All materials will be provided. By the end of the day you'll leave with a unique piece of art and the knowledge you'll need to continue making and learning about mosaics. Light refreshments will be served, but bring your lunch to round out the full day of art making.

Celestial Bodies Exhibition Planetarium Event: June 20, 6:00 - 6:45 pm &
7:00 - 7:45 pm
This summer solstice, the Lyndon House Arts Center warmly welcomes you to a free evening of live music under the computer-generated stars at the Sandy Creek Nature Center. Michelle Cash, of the Nature Center, will begin the planetarium program with a brief presentation about the summer solstice and its significance in various cultures over time. Next, Lydian Brambila, an Athens-based artist and musician, will provide musical accompaniment to a visual planetarium program. Brambila utilizes a cello and digital sampler to create expansive and ethereal soundscapes. The audience is invited to sit back, gaze up at the stars, feel the audio vibrations, and travel to another space. 
This event is held in conjunction with the exhibition Celestial Bodies, on display at the Lyndon House from June 13th through August 31st, 2024.
