Upcoming Classes, Events, and Workshops

classes & Workshops

Every class here starts the same way: you and your dog, paying attention to each other before anything else gets layered on. What changes is the shape that attention takes: a sequence of obstacles, a game with rules added, a piece of music, a page in a sketchbook. Pick one below, or do more than one.

Mini Painting: Summer Night

Join us for an hour of guided mini painting on a 3×3 canvas. Working from a photo of your pet from behind, Justus will guide you through painting a luminous summer night scene: your animal small and present in a moonlit meadow, the sky full of stars above them. No painting experience needed. All materials provided. Participants should submit a photo of their pet from behind in advance so Justus can confirm it'll work for the composition. $45 per person.
