That fall, his soldiers seized two British forts occupied Montreal and captured most of the British regulars in Canada before he fell at Quebec on December 31.

Michael P. Gabriel is the chair of the department of history at Kutztown University of Pennsylvania.

Local award-winning photographer William Adamczak’s photo of a sunset will inspire this acrylic painting class with Patrice Jarvis-Weber.

Using brilliant yellows and oranges for the sky, participants will then use a soft blue for the background mountain and brush on heavy darker shades for the foreground mountain and trees. Because of the photo’s bold hues and definite lines, participants will have an easier opportunity to practice drawing skills and learn methods to put the reflections onto the water.

This workshop is open to all artistic abilities and ages, and all supplies are included.

Payment is required at the time of registration. Space is limited to 8 participants. To register, please call (518)793-2826.
