This is your chance to make it completely your own. \n\n\n\nThe class runs from 11:00 AM–6:00 PM\, giving you plenty of time to paint\, relax\, enjoy the vineyard\, and sip a glass of wine included with your $125 registration. Feel free to bring a shareable snack or two to enjoy while you paint. And because every artist loves a little surprise\, there will also be door prizes throughout the day! \n\n\n\nSince we’re gathering on the Saturday after Thanksgiving\, this is a wonderful way to enjoy a creative day out with family or friends who are visiting for the holiday. Or\, simply come get out of the house and do something fun after the Thanksgiving festivities! Seating is limited\, so advance registration is required. Your spot is secured with prepaid registration\, so choose your pattern\, reserve your seat\, and come ready for a creative day at the vineyard. \n\n\n\nChoose Your Design Prior to Class\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Your Hosts\n\n\n\nBarn Quilts by Rose is the creative work of Rose Pait\, a North Carolina barn quilt artist with a passion for “paintin’ the towns—one barn quilt at a time!” Rose creates and sells barn quilts in a variety of sizes\, but what she loves most is sharing her passion with others through her hands-on Barn Quilt Paint Parties. Her classes give you the opportunity to choose a pattern\, explore your creativity\, and paint a barn quilt that is uniquely yours. We’re delighted to welcome Rose to Gioia dell’Amore Cellars and bring her love of barn quilts to the vineyard for a day of creativity\, wine\, and a whole lot of fun! \n\n\n\nGioia dell’Amore Cellars (pronounced: “Joy-A” – “dell” – “Ah more ay”) invites you to savor the Joy of Love in every sip and every step. Nestled on 96 acres of rolling hills in Mayodan\, NC\, our vineyard is a rustic escape where love lingers in the air and laughter dances among the vines of Autumn Creek Vineyards. Whether you’re toasting in our elegant yet cozy tasting room\, unwinding in a romantic cabin\, or saying “I do” at our dreamy wedding venue\, every moment here is steeped in romance.
