SOLD OUT.
The Manton Study Center for Works on Paper welcomes artists of all experience and skill levels to find inspiration in thematic selections from the Clark’s collection of works on paper. December’s program features prints and drawings made from loose brushstrokes and free flowing forms to help participants “loosen up” their hands, relinquishing careful, controlled markings to embrace a freer and more spontaneous practice. Enjoy an open session to participate in the tradition of copying earlier artworks or choose to practice fundamentals and explore ideas.
Basic materials are provided. Artists bringing their own supplies should note that only graphite pencils are allowed in the Study Center.
Free. Advance registration required. Capacity is limited.
