Paint and Pause

Paint and Pause in Canmore’s Spring Creek offers a two-hour outdoor watercolour workshop that helps guests slow down and reconnect with creativity. Led by Alyssa and Dawn Outside, this guided session invites participants to explore watercolours and simple mark making in a calm, supportive setting. Supplies are provided, and snacks are supported by the Bow Valley Food Alliance, so guests can simply show up and focus on the experience. The workshop welcomes all ages and skill levels, from first-time painters to experienced creatives looking to refresh their practice or complement other wellness routines. Guests meet across from the water fountain at 1012 Spring Creek Drive, with registration by email at listenstudioretreat@gmail.com and a fee of $60 plus taxes and fees.
