Channel Your Inner Van Gogh on this Avalon Discovery Shore Excursion in Amsterdam
What happens when you put three non-painters in a painting workshop?
My friends, travel expert Ryan McElroy and travel and gardening journalist Tara Nolan, were no more confident in their own artistic talent. But we were all game to try to channel our inner Van Gogh.
The afternoon Van Gogh painting workshop is one of Avalon Waterway's 'Discovery' shore excursions, included experiences available at different destinations on all Avalon European river cruises. The Van Gogh painting workshop shore excursion is inspired by the Dutch artist and the city that's home to the museum of his works, and it's available to Avalon guests on cruises in port in Amsterdam.
Discovery shore excursions allow you to immerse yourself in a particular aspect of local culture and lifestyle. It was a lighthearted and illuminating afternoon. And we each walked away with the fruits of our efforts: a painting that we all packed in our luggage to take home as a unique memento of our Avalon river cruise.
