Experience art.
Have you always wanted to try painting but felt too intimidated? Sign up for a paint-a-long with Capital City Arts and see how creative you can be. Art is about more than the finished product. Art is about the experience.
Each class is led by local artist Melissa Costa in step-by-step format. All supplies are included with each class. All you have to do is bring yourself and a positive attitude.
“If you hear a voice within you say you cannot paint, then by all means paint and that voice will be silenced.”
-Vincent Van Gogh
About the Artist
Hello, fellow creatives! Welcome to Capital City Arts. My name is Melissa Costa. I am a California native who moved to Kentucky and fell in love with the land and the people. I attended Eastern Kentucky University (EKU) and majored in Art and minored in Art History. Shortly after graduating, I realized my passion for advocating for the arts and making art accessible to everyone. The more people I meet, the more I realize that people don’t feel like they “get” art. My hope with Capital City Arts is that you will take a class, learn something new, experience what makes art special, and carry that experience with you. Whether you fall in love with a painting or take away a new appreciation for art, I hope you have a great time creating with me.
