Oil Painting Club

All skill levels welcome!

Whether you are a skilled expert or painting novice, Oil Painting Club is for you! Painters can come together at the Sunny Isles Beach Government Center, 1st Floor Meeting Room to work on their art pieces in the company of other painters. This is a self-guided program, not an instructed course. Oil Painting Club is a great opportunity to develop your skills, receive feedback, and take inspiration from other creative individuals who enjoy this art form.

Bring your own supply of oil paint, palette, canvas and brushes. Beginners may even wish to purchase Paint by Number kits to get themselves started. The City will provide easels and storage of canvas from week to week.
