New England Traditions invites you to join us for “Art Lights the Way” October 5-10, 2027. Theme Art for NET 2027 by Anne Hunter. Creative Touch- Anne Hunter
Anne Hunter of the Creative Touch who has been involved with NET since the beginning, will share a booth with Mary Svenson between teaching her three classes. Anne will have a display of new design packets, painted samples, and special offerings. Stop by the booth for a chat and see what's new. We look forward to seeing you.
Anne had a vision – To create designs that would be easy for the novice painter and would also interest the more experienced artist. The realization of the vision has become The Creative Touch, a studio where Anne designs painting projects and shares her knowledge through classes developed to build skills and confidence.
Classes in the Studio - Anne teaches in the studio on a weekly basis. During each class, there is a choice of working as a group to paint a project in a step-by-step method, or to work individually on their own specific project.
Classes about Town - “The traveling classroom” is a new program where Anne brings the classroom to different locations with a complete painting package including a surface, paints, brushes and supplies. Normally these classes are 3 hours long and the students leave with a completed painting.
