Drawing Closer: A Potpourri of Favorites
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. This month, the “theme” is a bit looser than usual—this selection of prints, drawings, and photographs is an eclectic assembly of the current Curatorial Assistant for Works on Paper’s all-time favorite works from the collection. 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.
Registration opens one month prior to event date.
Free. Advance registration required.
