Plein Air Watercolor Adventures: Teen Camp
Hannah is here with camps for incoming 7th graders through graduating seniors (2026). Hannah will take students out doors to paint their surroundings using watercolors. Students will start each morning by meeting at the Fuller Lodge Art Center and doing a few warm up exercises before taking a stroll to various downtown locations such as Ashley Pond, The Romero Cabin Complex, PEEC Nature Center, and Bathtub Row.
Students should bring a sunscreen, a hat, and water bottle as well as a light snack and plan for short walks carrying supplies to locations around town. Students will return to the Fuller Lodge Art Center at 11:30 AM to wind down and discuss their adventures. If weather is nasty, we have indoor fun spaces to test our skills as well and students should still plan to take short walks and plan appropriately!
Each student will receive a watercolor workbook, a small watercolor kit and brush, and a sling pack to carry their items as they adventure.

Slow stitching & mending
Join us for a night of slow stitching and mending practice. We will have mending kits on hand to try out! Bring a project to work on or pick up some supplies from ours. A $5 donation is suggested to help cover mending kits and other supplies used, but the event is free.
Why Slow Stitching? Why Mending? In today’s busy world, it can be tempting to “toss it” and replace it. More and more, folks are looking for ways to slow down, fix it rather than forget it, learn new skills and build a community with others who share these goals. Ditch the phone for a night (okay, let’s admit we’ll probably have to get on YouTube to check out some tutorials, but you know what we mean) and hang out with friends or find new friends at these slow stitching craft workshops.
No experience necessary, bring your own supplies or use ours. Thanks to the Los Alamos Teen Center for sponsoring this series and to the McCune Charitible Foundation for their support in bringing communities together to share art, skills, and build a more resilient Los Alamos!
