Vincent Van Gogh’s post-impressionist art is some of the most expressive, iconic, and celebrated work of the late 1800s. Now you can learn to create a Van Gogh inspired piece based on his famous painting “Starry Night.” In this workshop led by Kaileigh Anne Tayek, Director of the Schools of Arts & Health at Central Florida Community Arts (CFCArts), you’ll learn to create a beautiful work of art through a series of accessible steps. Whether you’re a first-time painter or an experienced artist, this workshop will guide you in creating an end result you’ll treasure for years to come, while the experience itself will calm stress and lead to a sense of peace and relaxation.

This program is presented by Kaileigh Anne Tayek of Central Florida Community Arts and is hosted by the Winter Park Health Foundation.
