This is a wonderful, 2-day paint out hosted by APAP Member Hope Riccardi at the Sedona Artists Market. Parking at trailheads can be a challenge, plan to carpool with other artists from the SAM parking lot. SAM has a view of Thunder Mountain from across Hwy 89A; most trailheads are within a mile or two, so Hope has offered to shuttle people to sites in West Sedona. Registered participants will receive more details from Hope directly.
