Austin Watercolor Meet-Up
Pack your paints and join us for November's meet-up in the garden at Este, the much loved East Austin restaurant that "celebrates fresh seafood, Mexican cuisine, and charcoal cooking.”
We’ll start with a garden walk led by garden manager Anamaría Gutierrez, then settle in at the picnic tables, or pull up a chair beside your favorite plant. Jaime will lead a quick warm-up and is available for demos and questions. No experience needed, please bring paints.
Guests are welcome to stay for Este's happy hour lunch when the restaurant opens at noon!
