LONG WEEKEND PARIS, GIVERNY and VERSAILLES

This Art Weekender takes us to 2 spectacular gardens just a short train journey from Paris. Monets impressionist garden at Giverny, which is spectacular all year round, looks especially beautiful from July to August when the water lilies are in full bloom and inspirational for Monets immersive waterlilly paintings which we will also visit at the Orangerie in the Tuileries Garden. Our first day, Saturday, is spent in Paris and we then travel to Giverny early on Sunday and then Versailles on the Monday. The fee is £190 for the 3 days of workshops. A £75 deposit is required to reserve your place, with the final £115 due 4 weeks prior to our meetup.
During our weekend we look at photography themes in relation to gardens, Pictorialism and Impressionist approaches to photography with a series of mini projects in Paris, Giverny and Versailles. You may be interested in extending your stay either before or after our long weekend.
