Paint, Live, and Eat! That should be the motto for this workshop which has become a nearly two decade tradition in Virginia City.  Here we expand our boundaries as artists as we paint in the Victorian studio of this venerable building. Participating artists not only take the workshop but stay in the beautifully restored rooms of the 1870’s era brick building.
