Drawing Closer: The Cat’s Meow
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 May, the selection features prints and drawings honoring the sinuous lines and dignified silhouettes of our favorite cuddly apex predators: cats. 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. Registration opens one month before the event. For accessibility questions, call 413 458 0524.
