Painting in the Park
Join Art Exchange for Painting in the Park with Suffolk based artist Claudia Bose.
Taking inspiration from John Constable’s painting ‘Wivenhoe Park’ (1816), we’re going to walk in Constable’s footsteps and create our own mini masterpieces – with the support of artist Claudia to show us how.
Why not make a day of it, enjoying Wivenhoe Park and its cafes and of course, Art Exchange!
Beginners welcome – come and have a go!
Admission Free - all welcome. There's no need to book, just drop by.
Arrive at Art Exchange and our team will show you where to find us in the park.
