Visitors ages 12–14 learn the fundamentals of drawing, using the galleries of the Museum as a studio. Techniques included are: exploration of line; the use of lights and darks to create form; understanding measurement and proportion; composition; and objects and figures to scale. Work with an artist-instructor to create drawings for your portfolio! Please bring a 9 x 12" sketchbook and pencils.
