About the Instructor:

Hello! I am Courtney and I paint and create mini things! I want to share my passion for this hobby with you because it allows me to be creative and be in a space that my head can relax. Sometimes when my life becomes chaotic or stressful we need a place to go to and that for me is hobbying. I have been painting and teaching for 3 years and couldn't love it more.
I hope through my passion for this hobby you feel safe to explore your creativity, know that it doesn't always have to be perfect, and mistakes are a good thing.

Proof of COVID-19 vaccination, vaccine exemption, or negative test within 72 hours of the workshop is required. Thank you.

Instructor: Brent Janz

In this introductory level course for participants aged 14+, participants will learn the basics of finding materials for and making simple terrain pieces for their tabletop games.

We’ll discuss where to find materials cheaply, what materials work best together, and what simple tools you should get first, to start your terrain building. We’ll also cover some simple painting techniques as we build some terrain pieces with materials provided. This course is designed for the absolute beginner, perfect for anyone who has wanted to build tabletop terrain but didn’t know where to start.

All required tools and supplies will be provided and students will take home leftover materials to hopefully continue building.
