The 36th annual Kanuga Watermedia Workshops, March 26 - April 1, 2022 (5 day class instruction March 27–31), will be held at the Kanuga Conference Center in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina. The workshops offer the student a choice of eleven artist-instructors, independent study and our 'Paint With Friends – Open Studio’. Our instructors are chosen for their ability to help painters develop and advance their skills. Painting is always a learning experience. Our goal is to help painters sharpen their critical awareness and discover painting gratification. All levels of painters are invited. Instructors will conduct their individual classes in assigned classrooms. Each student works with one selected instructor the entire workshop. Classes are limited to 24 students, though most classes tend to be smaller. The instructor’s materials list, activity schedules, directions to the Kanuga Conference Center, and other general information will be posted on our website. The Kanuga Conference Center is located close to Hendersonville, N.C., and Interstates 26, 40 and 85; and is served by the Asheville Airport. All workshop activities are held on the 1,400-acre campus. Housing Accommodations: Rooms do not have TV's or phones; however all have Internet Wi-Fi access. All linens are provided. Kanuga Inn: The Kanuga Lake Inn offers 61 hotel-style rooms, each with a private bathroom. Each floor has access to a spacious common room with a fireplace. Every room offers easy access to the dining room, library, lobby and other areas. Cottages: Have from two to six bedrooms (with two beds in each one), and include a sitting room, fireplace, and screened porch. In some, baths are shared by two bedrooms.

Guest Houses: A limited number are available for groups; minimum of 4, up to 8 people. Guests Houses are larger than cottages, but farther from the dining rooms. Guest Houses have Wi-Fi.

An early arrival night (Friday) can be arranged for an additional fee. Painters’ Guests (non-workshop) are welcome. Many activities are available in the area and on the Conference grounds. Commuters are welcome. Commuters’ fees include choice of either lunch only, or all meals, followed with evening programs. We encourage commuters to participate fully as the ideas and conversations that often occur at mealtimes and during the evening are a major part of the enrichment of the program. There’s more about being at Kanuga than just what happens in the classroom! Meals: Most meals are buffet style and will accommodate most diets including vegetarian, gluten-free, and low cholesterol.
