Wright will lecture and demonstrate how to capture inspired moments between sunset and sunrise from an impressionist's perspective. Participants must have a basic understanding of their selected art form and be able to handle their own equipment for en plein air fieldwork, as well as for the studio workshop environment.  Minimum age is 18. Registration opens August 15.
