Drawing & Painting
Drawing From the Collection
Drawing from the Collection offers participants the opportunity to practice, learn, and develop drawing skills by working in the museum directly from the collection. Drawing helps you see things you had never noticed before. You can understand how an image is put together and start to internalize what makes a composition successful. Learning from artists can inspire you, teach you new approaches to creating art, and help you gather techniques and expertise that you can use to make your own works.
