Paint Your Cat Night
Sep
16
6:00 PM18:00

Paint Your Cat Night

Learn how to paint your cat using watercolors!

We will start by outlining our cats with a black, waterproof pen and then layer on colors using a wet on dry technique. At the end, we will add a colorful background using a wet on wet technique.

But you don't know how to draw your cat? NO PROBLEM! The instructor will come to class with your cat drawn on your paper! That's right- this isn't a drawing class- it's a painting class! Let's not waste time on drawing!

The instructor, Emily, was an elementary teacher for 10 years before becoming a full-time artist and she’s excited to get back into a classroom again to do what I love: teach!

Cost: $60 per person
Location: Madison Cat Project, 3205 Latham Dr, Madison, WI 53713
*Optional tour of Madison Cat Project facility and play time with adoptable cats offered at the end of our class!


All supplies included. You will leave the class with a 5x7 inch framed or matted finished piece.

***THE BEST PART?!*** 10% of your class fee will go directly to Madison Cat Project.

Unfortunately, we cannot allow walk-ins the day of class. You must be on time at 6:00 p.m. to participate.

Purchase tickets here.
