@ “Winter Blues” mixed papers, pen, wax This class is eligible for access rates. Join us for a playful and immersive four-hour art making workshop exploring materials and creative techniques, inspired by the exhibitions at the Farnsworth Art Museum. Together, we’ll look closely at artworks in the galleries and respond through a series of dynamic, hands-on processes. Participants will experiment with collage, develop a drawing repertoire, work on paper, paint with water-based media, explore color, and incorporate text as texture. This lively session offers a range of approaches to making, encouraging curiosity and personal expression. Participants will enjoy this high energy and unique opportunity to see and make art. Perfect for all levels, bring a friend or family member and enjoy a creative afternoon together!
