On select Sundays in August & September, explore the intersection of art and inspiration as you create in the galleries alongside curated still lifes, our current exhibition, ‘Still, Life! Meaning and Mending in Contemporary Art,’ and collection of site-specific installations. Each session will feature a local teaching artist offering guidance on techniques in plein air and still life approaches.
