Three longtime and popular artists – Mark Jacobucci, Mike Tauber and Anthony Salvo – are offering specific painting subjects on Saturday evenings. This is super cool (and non-intimidating fun), whether you choose to paint sunsets, donuts or the Monterey coastline. These sell out very quickly, so get on it. Here are notes on each week’s artist and subject matter that you’ll be painting and taking home with you.

Cost is $75 and includes supplies, complimentary wine or beverage and Festival admission. Classes begin at 8:30 p.mm. and are 1.5 hours. You must be 21 years of age or older. Reservations are absolutely required.

On July 13, Mark Jacobucci teaches you how to paint a Provincetown Sailboat.

Mark Jacobucci grew up on Cape Cod in Massachusetts. As a child he was prodigious at drawing and maintained a cartoon strip in a local newspaper for several years. He painted in high school and college. He attended Brandeis University earning a BA with highest honors in fine arts and then a Masters Degree in Landscape Architecture at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. Since coming to California in 1985 he has participated in the landscape planning and design of many significant communities throughout the region.
