Watercolor Paint Party: Capturing the Soul of the Olsen Barn

Watercolor Paint Party: Capturing the Soul of the Olsen Barn

Watercolor Paint Party: Capturing the Soul of the Olsen Barn

Sunday, September 14th - 12PM - 5PM - $60

"Everyone loves the barn. Painting it is like taking a leisure walk around the barn." — Artist Heather Greene

Step into a story that began over 160 years ago, when Norwegian immigrant Peter Olsen arrived in Big Meadows with nothing but his craftsmanship and a dream. With massive hand-hewn timbers and wooden pegs carved by his own hands, Peter built what would become one of Northern California's most beloved landmarks — the iconic Olsen Barn.

Today, that same barn stands as a testament to master craftsmanship in the heart of Chester's last remaining piece of Big Meadows, surrounded by 107 acres of meadow that once lay beneath what is now Lake Almanor. It's the same barn that has watched generations of children grow up, welcomed countless photographers seeking its rustic beauty, and served as a gathering place for weddings, celebrations, and quiet contemplation.

Now, local artist Heather Greene invites you to experience the barn as she does — not just as a subject to paint, but as a gentle companion for an afternoon's journey. Under Heather's expert guidance, you'll discover why this weathered beauty has captured hearts for generations. As your brush moves across watercolor paper, you'll find yourself taking that same "leisure walk" Heather describes — noticing the way afternoon light plays across the corrugated metal roof, the stories held in every weathered board, and the peaceful rhythm of creating art in the shadow of history.

Your artistic adventure includes:

  • All materials needed to create your watercolor masterpiece

  • Expert instruction from Heather Greene

  • Appetizers to fuel your creativity

  • One complimentary beer (additional beverages available)

  • An original artwork that captures not just the barn's image, but its timeless spirit

Whether you're a seasoned artist or have never held a paintbrush, you'll leave with more than just a painting — you'll carry home a piece of Chester's living history, painted by your own hands, filled with the same love that has drawn people to this remarkable barn for over a century and a half.

Reserve your spot today at Waganupa Brewing, 401 Peninsula Drive

Limited seating - All skill levels welcome - Pet and family-friendly
