Artistic Experiences in Chesapeake Bay

Watercolors & Mimosas Cruise

Theresa takes her art lessons on the water: As you cruise Carter’s Creek—gaining inspiration from the resident wildlife and lush scenery—she’ll outline the basics of watercolor painting. Create your own masterpiece, then celebrate with a mimosa.

Painting and Pinot

Join Theresa as she guides you through the process of painting with acrylics. Enjoy a charcuterie board while sipping on wine. All talent levels are welcome.

Kokedama

Join us in the Maker Space for our new Kokedama workshop with Theresa. This class focuses on the Japanese bonsai art of wrapping plant roots in soil and moss, then binding them with string. Once wrapped, the plants can be suspended from the ceiling, hooks or shelves.

Pottery on the Wheel

Theresa will guide you step-by-step to master the wheel as you make your own unique ceramic piece. Class includes two pieces to be glazed, fired and shipped.

Bespoke Mugs—A Clay Handbuilding Class

With help from Theresa, design and craft your own bespoke mug through the process of handbuilding, or creating pottery without a wheel. Add a personalized touch by pressing locally foraged plant pieces into your clay for texture or decoration—and a reminder of the natural beauty of the Tides Inn.
