Tour Host Pick of the Month
by Sheri Leigh

Art Workshop International

For over 20 years Edith Isaac-Rose and Bea Kreloff have shared their love of art with artists from around the world. Their unique workshops include a wide variety of techniques and genres. Each year the course selections change to reflect the specialties of the year’s featured instructors, which include professional artists and writers, as well as university professors.

Assisi, Italy is the focal point for their yearly summer workshops, while the fishing village of Puerto Escondido on Mexico’s Pacific coast serves as home base for the winter workshops. Both destinations allow artists to explore their creative passions in locations selected to inspire creativity. The common trait of both sections is the variety of offerings available: Painting, drawing, printmaking, poetry, photography and art history. 

The courses include accommodation at local hotels that have studios set aside for the group. Selected for their charm and location, the hotels are perfect for exploring the countryside and experiencing the full beauty and flavor of the region.

Friends with slightly different areas of interest, and non-artist companions are easily accommodated as well.
