Description

Art Visits Nature – Spend time in a living museum

Join us for the first two 2026 excursions at the rustic cottage at the halfway point of Sandy Neck Beach Park, surrounded by dunes, marsh, and water. This quiet setting offers solitude, scenic views, and endless inspiration for creatives.

Bring your own supplies and spend the day painting, photographing, or writing while immersed in this unspoiled landscape. Participants will travel by Beach Ranger through the dunes for this unique 4–6 hour experience.
