In this short weekend break indulge in a glorious getaway full of colour in the bustling port town of Capestang, Canal du Midi.

Whether you are already sketching or an absolute beginner, you’ll be guided step-by-step - from fear of the blank page to making bold and confident brushstrokes! You’ll complete your stay with a book full of great sketches and plenty of good memories too.

For 2 glorious days we will be sketching and exploring the waterside views, market square, charming narrow lanes and shuttered houses.
