Porto, Portugal
September 17 - 23, 2025 - 7 Days
Join us for a watercolor retreat in the city of Porto, Portugal, from September 17 to 23, 2025. You'll start with a welcome dinner to get settled into your villa and meet your fellow artists. Each day, you'll paint at stunning spots like Foz do Douro, and the lush Jardins do Palácio de Cristal (Crystal Palace Gardens). Enjoy a cooking class to savor local cuisine and a tile painting session. Evenings are for unwinding with dinners and free time to explore Porto's charm. Mid-week, try your hand at acrylic and oil painting with a local artist. As the retreat winds down, you'll paint along the serene banks of the Douro River and in the beautiful São Roque Park. End the retreat with a beautiful farewell dinner.
