Writing Closer: Through The Lens of a Portrait
Pricing: Free. Advance registration required; capacity is limited.
The Manton Study Center for Works on Paper invites writers of all experience and skill levels to be inspired by thematic selections from the Clark’s collection of works on paper. January’s theme, “Through the Lens of a Portrait,” features prints, drawings, and photographs of sitters whose stories beg to be revealed. Whether it’s poetry or prose, fiction or non-, and a story-in-progress or something completely new, allow the works to inspire your writing.
Basic materials are provided. Writers bringing their own supplies should note that only graphite pencils are allowed in the Study Center.
Free. Advance registration required; capacity is limited.
