Friday January 30 - Red Barn Market

Dumela Alfrescoes! On Friday January 30 2015, we will be painting at the Red Barn Market on W. Saanich Road and surrounding area.

If you do not want to paint at the market itself, you can try the intersection of Wallace Drive and W. Saanich Road (just north of the market). 

The site offers plenty of farmland scenery. A map can be found  here . We'll meet at the market at 12:00 for our show'n'tell.

Friday January 23 - Government House

Selam Alfrescoes. Our next paint-out (Friday January 23 2015) will be at Government House (1401 Rockland Street). There is limited parking at the House but if you drive up and go past the house, take the left driveway. There is plenty of parking at the bottom. Click here for a map.

We can meet at noon in the glass gazebo, located in the front gardens (circled in red in the image below). If it is raining, then the gazebo will prove especially useful.

Happy (Belated) New Year Alfrescoes.  

Sincere apologies for not setting the first location of 2015. Alcohol was not a factor.
