Join us at the El Paso Museum of Archaeology for an afternoon of painting with artist Lizzie Ochoa! This hands-on workshop will allow participants to create their very own landscape painting of the beautiful surroundings outside of the museum. This workshop is open to all skills levels. You will be taught the basics of painting techniques and guided through creating an interesting painting! Seating is limited to 12 participants; pre-registration is encouraged.
