We're excited to announce our “Dive into Drawing,” a summer workshop series designed by our community arts engagement intern Nina Owen ’25. Developed to dovetail with our two drawings-focused exhibitions Infinity on Paper and 500 Years of Italian Drawings, we’re offering four artist-led workshops in May and June that feature hands-on explorations of media, creative experiments, and technical instruction, all in the context of the rich history of the medium. See the exhibitions before they close on June 23 and try your hand at these workshops!

Portrait without People: This workshop will teach you how to use freehand drawing to create a chair that represents a person portrayed in a photograph. By using principles such as line, shape, value, texture, perspective, and composition, you'll create chairs that embody the essence of a person without the pressure of drawing their visual likeness.
These workshops are $15 per class with all materials provided. Space is limited so !
