We are excited to announce the return of our popular Vernon Winter Carnival event, a Winter's Night Painting Party, Wednesday, Feb. 12 in the Caetani Gallery.
Explore your creative side by painting a Sveva Caetani-inspired image from her original work, Playing with Penrose, Aztec Fan V, painted in the late-1980s to align with this year's Carnival theme, Back to the '80s.
Our professional artist Destanne Norris will guide you through, encouraging you to create your own work of art that emulates the style and theme of a Caetani original using your own colours, inspiration and imagination using acrylic paint on a 14” x 11” canvas panel.
Your ticket includes instruction, all art supplies, Italian wine, cheese, charcuterie, socializing, and best of all, you get to keep the painting you create to take home and frame.
This year, we are also offering all Painting Party participants a special coupon for a free self-guided tour of the Caetani museum/gallery. Learn more about the Caetani story and see our incredible collection of artifacts and Sveva Caetani art. Coupons can be redeemed anytime in 2025!
Purchase your ticket at the Vernon Winter Carnival office today.
