The Manton Study Center for Works on Paper invites artists of all experiences and skill levels to work closely after thematic selections of works on paper from the Clark’s collection. Inspired by the visionary portal designs of Paul Goesch, June’s theme will be “Fantastical Façades,” featuring prints, drawings, and photographs focusing on the decorative architecture of real and imagined spaces. Enjoy an open session to participate in the tradition of copying earlier artworks or choose to practice fundamentals and explore ideas. Basic materials are provided. Artists bringing their own supplies should note that only graphite pencils are allowed in the Study Center and museum galleries. Limited to 15 participants.
