Virtual Art Blitz 2020

Due to COVID-19 concerns this year’s Art Blitz will be live-streamed to enable us to reach the maximum number of individuals. 

Immerse yourself in a virtual world of art-making, with live demos and creative detours for all ages. Local artists will provide live facebook demos including ceramics, watercolor, drawing photography and weaving, plus behind-the-scenes tours of the Art Barn rarely seen. Galleries will be open during the day for those who wish to enjoy our exhibits or a picnic in one of our gardens.

The annual Art Blitz event helps the Art Barn highlight its educational art offerings with live demonstrations and exhibitions of regional art. The festival is designed to encourage visitors and residents of all ages to actively engage in various art activities. Art Barn’s retreat-like atmosphere provides plenty of inspiration for creative minds.
