Get creative, learn a new skill, and enjoy the New England Botanic Garden at Tower Hill by sunset as you sip on a craft beer or cocktail.  All programs in our Craft & Cocktail series include one complementary drink from your choice of soft drink, beer, wine, canned cocktails, or the evening’s signature cocktail. 

Join your teacher, Miranda Buck, On August 21 at 5:30 to learn to sketch, paint, and create a decorative sunflower slate to display on your front door using easy-to-use acrylics.  All materials are included in this easy, make-and-take class. Miranda has been an artist since the day she could hold a crayon. Throughout her studies she has explored many forms of media including watercolor and ink. In 2007 she self-published a children’s book, Rapid Duck, and worked on wildlife illustrations during graduate school. Miranda is drawn to styles of brush painting that capture the essence of the subject in a few elegant brushstrokes, making the act of painting into a meditative experience. She continues to pursue her career and perfect her skills, drawing inspiration from the natural world.
