On Saturday December 14, renown Sonoma County artist Roberta Ahrens is holding an all day Holiday Workshop in the Petaluma Mentor Me Center art room, West Petaluma where participants are invited to learn to work with her "Cracked Linen" technique to create handmade, heirloom quality beautiful gift boxes, journals, and art pieces suitable for framing to hang in your home or give as beautiful one-of-a-kind gifts.
"It's both a deep dive into the techniques I have been using to create art work for over 35 years, and the opportunity to simply cut loose and enjoy making beautiful creative gifts for friends and family," says Roberta.
The cost for this one day workshop, including materials is $225, but an EARLY BIRD price of $175 is available through Black Friday, November 29.
