Make & Take: Retratos en colores pastel

Join us for a guided art-making series for adults, one Thursday every month. Drop by and stay for as long as you want. Whether it's a few minutes or an hour, you'll leave with a new skill and your own creation. No previous experience necessary and all materials provided.

Learn skills from a local artist to help you create a portrait of a live model with pastels. The model will be wearing period clothing connected to the Berthe Morisot, Woman Impressionist exhibition and you will learn techniques using one of Morisot's chosen mediums.
