Event Description

Join this two-hour acrylic workshop in dialogue with the exhibition Strange Weather: From the Collections of Jordan D. Schnitzer and His Family Foundation.

This adult studio workshop gives participants the opportunity to use contemporary painting techniques to address the roles, responsibilities, and emotions that we encounter within the strange atmosphere of our modern world. Instructor Diane Crago invites painters of all experience levels, including students who have never held a brush, to join her in a journey of self-discovery, creating a meaningful original work that is both an inner exploration and outward expression of our constantly shifting relationship to the natural and social climates surrounding us.

Workshop includes studio materials with registration. Enrollment for this studio workshop is limited to 20 participants. Ages 16+
