SUMMARY:Vine to Glass: Noble & Global: Republic of Georgia
DESCRIPTION:In 2022 and 2023\, we tasted 60+ gems from the four corners of Virginia wine country. Through those bottles\, we discovered the terroir\, varietals\, styles and stories in our own backyard. For 2024\, we’re expanding perspective to explore the noble wines of our global neighbors. Via 6 wines per class\, we’ll wend around the world with stops in hemispheres north\, south\, east and west as we delve into regions that fascinate as historic wonders\, up-and-comers or far-flung curiosities. Paired with each glass\, enjoy thoughtful small plates from Executive Chef Jared Serr themed to the region and wine. \nJoin us for an evening of flights\, bites and edutainment from renowned sommelier and author Jason Tesauro. And if you can’t make it to class\, we invite you to “remote study” by picking up select Vine to Glass bottles at Barrel Thief Wine & Provisions\, our retail partner.  (This series will continue throughout 2023 with additional dates and global locations publishing in future seasons) \nAncient Region\, Rising Tide: Republic of Georgia \nBetween the Black Sea and the High Caucuses is where Master of Wine Jancis Robinson finds\, “One of the world’s great and historic centres of both wild and cultivated vines.” Thanks in part to Russian embargoes in the past two decades\, a wine culture that’s persisted for over 8\,000 years has emerged anew to meet the wider wine-drinking world. \nFees: Member $69\, Non-Member $83 \nNote: If you have food allergies or dietary restrictions\, please register more than one week before the program date.  Menus are set 1 week in advance and additional restrictions cannot be accommodated after that time.   \n\nParticipants 21 and older only. All programs are subject to change.  Pre-registration through our website is required. \nLewis Ginter Botanical Garden strives to be a Garden for all and we are committed to offering diverse adult learning opportunities that are inclusive and accessible to all learners.

SUMMARY:The Northside Painters | Spring Artshow
DESCRIPTION:About Brenda Stankus \nNature and people fascinate me\, from organic debris to flowers in bloom\, to the hidden image\, particularly paintings of women doing ordinary things extraordinarily. She has painted both true botanical representations and imaginary possibilities. “I love to combine surfaces with unusual painting procedures to capture what I see and present it in unusual ways.” \n“Beauty can be transformative\, whether in harmony or discord\, and this makes working with the wonders of the organic world most exciting. There is enormous beauty not only in flower blossoms\, but equally as much in the lichen on tree bark\, in a garlic pod\, in dried vegetables and plant debris…not to mention the unfurling of a pod as it moves from seedpod to its full form. Can we capture a new beauty often missed? The inspiration is endless!!” \nAlways fascinated by nature and people\, Brenda started her professional career with children’s portraits in watercolor and then women in sculpture and back to painting\, her first love!   She strives to communicate opportunity to her students as well as painting techniques and savvy. \nBrenda’s work is in private and corporate collections throughout the nation\, including several large format works in lobbies of high-rise multi-use buildings in cities like Manhattan and Washington\, D.C. Solo exhibits at venues such as Union Station in D.C.\, the Javits Center in New York\, and locally at the University of Richmond have kept the journey exciting.\n \nIncluded with regular Garden admission\, free for members.

SUMMARY:Fundamentals of Graphite Shading: Drawing Demo with International Artist Rogério Lupo
DESCRIPTION:This virtual course led by renowned international artist Rogério Lupo aims to provide all the theoretical and practical tools necessary for beginners to initiate their practice and for intermediate students to improve their skills in graphite shading. We start from a basic understanding of the very mechanics of how graphite works\, as well as the importance of the texture of the paper and the sharpness of the pencil\, and how these aspects influence our intended result. We also address different ways to hold the pencil and the variety of motions used to produce the shading. From that understanding\, we expand our objectives and practice the visual apprehension of tonal values seen in nature in order to represent them accurately\, by aiming for the simplest approach. Once we master visual comprehension\, our hands will follow and begin to practice how to faithfully represent what we see with all its delicate nuances and subtle shifts. \nIn this course\, you will: \n–Learn about the different types and qualities of graphite\, and how and when to use them \n–Explore the different results that can be achieved according to the techniques and materials used \n–Investigate the essential role of accurate observation associated with a simple system of progressive depiction of shades \n–Understand how to achieve precision and uniformity of lines and edges \n–Practice rendering smooth and beautiful gradients and how to make eventual corrections to them \n–Examine methods for correcting errors and avoiding causing severe damage to the paper and finishing \nThis course will include drawing demonstrations of the various skills that will be discussed. Individualized feedback will be provided to each student. A basic understanding of drawing principles is recommended\, but all who wish to learn and explore are welcome. Students who want or need some introduction to graphite techniques prior to taking this course can find support in a free guidebook and a video tutorial provided by the instructor. \nFees: Member $164\, Non-Member $197 \nAll programs are subject to change. Pre-registration through our website is required. \nLewis Ginter Botanical Garden strives to be a Garden for all and we are committed to offering diverse adult learning opportunities that are inclusive and accessible to all learners.
