The light was unusual the scenery beautiful. It all started with painting 100 years ago. Now Ox-Bow offers art classes in many disciplines. Join us on the meadow as we bask in the light, and sketch, draw, paint, use clay, and found objects to make two-dimensional and three-dimensional works of art. Along the way we will explore all the arts and the unique natural environment that makes up Ox-Bow.
