Hillsdale Craft Supply will host a watercolor painting lesson at 2 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 30, according to the business’s Facebook page.

Owner of Hillsdale Craft Supply Shelley Mangus combined her entrepreneurial endeavors with her passion for teaching. Mangus said these lessons are “a way for me to help the community and teach everyone about all the different things art has to offer.”

The $35 fee covers both registration and painting supplies.

This month, Sidnie Kubien, an instructor and painter who works at the art store, will lead a two-hour painting session, sharing tips and tricks while walking participants through their own art pieces. 

Attendees will learn artistic skills while creating a scene depicting a road winding through the mountains, according to Kubien.

Kubien said she aims to offer a friendly environment where people can relax and freely use their imagination, and wants to show the community that watercolors are nothing to be afraid of. 

Hillsdale Craft Supply also offers lessons on pottery, stitching, drawing, and other types of art. Watercolor in particular, according to Mangus, always seemed like a difficult style because of its technical aspects and many niche tools.  

Those who wish to register for the event can visit the Hillsdale Craft Supply website or the Facebook page.
