R&F Core Artist Instructors have loads of summer and fall workshop opportunities for you to take advantage of. Whether you are interested in encaustic and book arts, printmaking, or working with oil and cold wax, there is something for everyone. Workshops below take place across the United States, as well as Ireland, Canada, and Switzerland. You can find additional workshops offered by each of these instructors by visiting their websites.
