Stretch It, Revitalize It, Frame It!

You’re ready to begin or finish your oil masterpiece, but it's expensive to buy canvases and frames. RAI Instructors can help! Or your vibrant colors seem to have faded on the canvas. RAI Instructors can help! Or you are a pastel artist who needs specialized framing techniques to protect your delicate artwork. RAI Instructors can help!

Come talk with our master instructors (Rebecca Leer, Shawn Vales, Stephanie Cook) during an afternoon of demonstrations on stretching your own canvas, restoring vibrancy to your painting, and framing your pastel painting.

Also joining us will be Craig, owner of NJ Frame & Molding. RAI artists have worked with Craig for decades to obtain very reasonably priced standard-size frames, as well as custom framing options.

Registration is required for this event and space is limited. Sign up on the registration sheet in the Barn Lobby (starting 7/18) or email Programs@ridgewoodartinstitute.org
