ABOUT THE CLUB
Meeting at the Midwest Museum of American Art, this class invites artists of all levels to draw inspiration from the museum’s collection and the surrounding landscape. We’ll sketch en plein air, study masterworks up close, dive into American art history, and experiment with various mediums and styles.
With group critiques, open discussions, and plenty of sketchbook time, this is a space to grow your practice, connect with fellow creatives, and celebrate the rich artistic heritage of our region.
