Henry Meininger and Phil Levine – two of the original founders of the
Art Students League of Denver
– invite you for a fabulous art and cultural experience in Burgundy, France, September 7-16, 2007.

Burgundy Town
This exciting European journey includes a full range of painting opportunities and instruction with professional artist and Colorado resident Teresa Vito and French language lessons with Françoise Bres-Gude. Françoise is a native of France who teaches at Alliance Française de Denver if you want to get a few lessons in before your travels. An array of wine tasting and gastronomy in one of the most heralded wine regions in the world will be hosted by Phil Levine.

We will be lodging in the wonderful village of Beaune, the heart of the spectacular Cote d'Or. One of our excursions is to Maison Bichot – a prestigious wine house where the tours are given in English and the tastings are of some of their best wines. Each night, we will take our superb dinner at a different restaurant in Beaune.
Hotel Henry II

Gevrey

For the painters, we will take day trips to fabulous painting locations along the Oust River, and up in the hills behind the vineyards. We will also paint in the vineyard of the 1000 year old Chateau of Gevrey-Chambertin and end the day with a wine tasting in their cellars.

Our painting instructor, Teresa Vito, has a degree in Fine Arts from the State University of New York at Geneseo. She studied at the Art Students League of Denver with Ramon Kelley, Quang Ho, Doug Dawson and Bruce Cody. Teresa painted with Richard Schmid for five years at the Loveland Academy of Fine Arts where she also studied with Nancy Guzik. She has participated in numerous workshops with artists Clyde Aspevig, Mike Lynch, Greg McHuron, and Laura Robb. Teresa has been a full-time painter since 1992 and is known for her enthusiastic and knowledgeable teaching.
