The Manton Study Center for Works on Paper welcomes artists of all experience and skill levels to find inspiration in thematic selections from the Clark’s collection of works on paper. Make sure you work up an appetite for art before coming, because we have a smorgasbord of food-related prints, drawings, and photographs to share this month, ranging from quiet still-lifes to elaborate dining scenes. 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.
